BST2 Recombinant Protein

- Overview
  - BST2 Human Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 133 amino acids (50-161) and having a molecular mass of 14.8 kDa. The BST2 is fused to a 21 amino acid His-Tag at N-terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. BST2 takes part in the growth and development of B-cells. The human cellular protein BST2 inhibits retrovirus infection by maintaining the diffusion of virus particles after budding from infected cells. BST2 was originally discovered as an inhibitor to HIV-1 infection in the absence of Vpu, but it is also known to inhibit the release of other viruses such as the Lassa and Marburg virions. In addition, BST2 has a part in B-cell activation in rheumatoid arthritis.
