Each vial of cell lysate contains 100ug of total protein (at 1 mg/ml). The 2xSDS Sample Buffer consists of 4% SDS, 125mM Tris-HCl pH6.8, 10% Glycerol, 0.002% Bromophenol blue, 100mM DTT.
Product Specifications
Application Notes
Each vial of cell lysate contains 100ug of total protein which should be sufficient for 20-50 reactions. Depending on over-expression level, antibody affinity and detection system, some lysates can go as low as 0.1 ug per load. We recommend starting with 5ug of cell lysate. Add an equal amount of cell lysate and 2X SDS Sample buffer and boil the SDS samples for 10 minutes before loading.
TMW
Disclaimer note: The observed molecular weight of the protein may vary from the listed predicted molecular weight due to post translational modifications, post translation cleavages, relative charges, and other experimental factors.

Background: KLRG1
KLRG1's primary ligand is E-cadherin, which is expressed on non-neural epithelial tissues, but the KLRG1 receptor also recognizes both N- and R-cadherin expressed in nervous system tissues (1,3,5,6). E-cadherin binding of KLRG1 leads to ITIM triggering and, ultimately, either reduced T cell proliferation or decreased NK cell cytotoxicity (3,5,6). More precisely, upon differentiation of CD8+ T cells, cells switch from signaling through CD28 and instead signal through the inhibitory KLRG1 receptor molecule (3,4). Phosphorylation of KLRG1's ITIM causes recruitment of two phosphatases, SH2-containing inositol polyphosphate 5-phoshate (SHIP-1) and SH-2 containing protein-tyrosine phosphatase 2 (SHP-2) (3,5). The effectors SHIP-1 and SHP-2 degrade PIP3 to PIP2, preventing Akt phosphorylation and inhibiting proliferation (3,5,6). Conversely, when KLRG1 signaling is blocked in highly differentiated T cells, Akt signaling is restored and cell proliferation resumes (3). An increase in highly differentiated T cells is observed in many age-related infections such as meningitis, pneumonia, and influenza, which also correlates with elevated KLRG1 levels (3). This observation suggests that KLRG1 may be a potential immunotherapeutic target, especially for vaccinations which typically have decreased response in aged patients (3).

HEK293T cells in 10-cm dishes were transiently transfected with a non-lipid polymer transfection reagent specially designed and manufactured for large volume DNA transfection. Transfected cells were cultured for 48hrs before collection. The cells were lysed in modified RIPA buffer (25mM Tris-HCl pH7.6, 150mM NaCl, 1% NP-40, 1mM EDTA, 1xProteinase inhibitor cocktail mix, 1mM PMSF and 1mM Na3VO4, and then centrifuged to clarify the lysate. Protein concentration was measured by BCA protein assay kit.
