Recombinant Bla g 2 (RP-BG2-1)

  • Recombinant Bla g 2 (RP-BG2-1)
Allergen: rBla g 2 (Blattella germanica allergen 2.0101), German cockroach
Unit: 250µg
Source: P. pastoris (clone NIG rBla g 2, glycosylation site N93Q mutated)
Mol. Wt: ~37 kD
Purification: Purified from Pichia pastoris culture supernatant by monoclonal antibody affinity chromatography. Purity by silver stained SDS-PAGE > 95%.
Concentration:

See product insert. 

Formulation:

Preservative and carrier-free in phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4. Filtered through 0.22 µm filter.

Storage: Store at -20ºC.
Notes: (1) One glycosylation site was removed in this recombinant leaving two glycosylation sites. The recombinant is glycosylated and has a slightly higher MW than natural. Bla g 2 (36kD).
(2) This recombinant form was used to determine the crystal structure of Bla g 2.
Genbank: U28863 Mutation N93Q, substituted cag (Q) for aac (N)
PDB: 1YG9, 2NR6 (with Fab-7C11), X-ray crystal structures
Product Resources: Recombinant Bla g 2 Certificate of Analysis
Allergens are provided for research and commercial use in vitro:  not for human in vivo or therapeutic use.
