B7 Purity:>95%, by SDS-PAGE visualized with Coomassie® Blue StainingDescription:Human B7 homolog 3 (B7-H3) is a member of the B7 family of immune proteins that provide signals for the regulation of immune responses. Other family members include B7-1, B7-2, B7-H1/PD-L1, B7-H2, and PD-L2. B7 family proteins are type I transmembrane immunoglobulin (Ig) superfamily members that contain extracellular Ig V‑like and Ig C‑like domains with a short cytoplasmic tail. Among the family members there is about 20 - 40% amino acid (aa) sequence identity. B7-H3 was initially reported to be a 316 aa type I transmembrane precursor protein that contained a signal sequence, an extracellular region with one V‑type and one C‑type Ig domain, a transmembrane segment and a short cytoplasmic tail. Subsequent studies have identified a second 110 kDa form whose precursor is 534 aa in length. Termed 4IgB7-H3 or B7-H3b, this molecule has two additional Ig-like domains (one V‑type and one C‑type) and shows a ubiquituous expression pattern. It would appear that the human 4Ig form is the principal, if not the only form of B7-H3. Its precursor contains a 26 aa signal sequence, a 435 aa extracellular region, a 31 aa transmembrane domain, and a 42 aa cytoplasmic tail. The four Ig-like domains alternate between V‑type and C‑type, and apparently are the consequence of a V‑C type tandem duplication. B7-H3b is expressed on dendritic cells as well as activated T, B and NK cells. The mouse gene differs from that of human in that it cannot code for four Ig-like domains; only a V‑type:C‑type pair. Human B7-H3b binding to an undefined receptor has shown to be inhibitory to NK cell illing and cytokine release. It also seems to be required for late stage osteoblast differentiation...

NAP-2 is a ligand for CXCR1 and CXCR2, and NAP-2, NAP-2(73), NAP-2(74), NAP-2(1-66), and most potent NAP-2(1-63) are chemoattractants and activators for neutrophils. TC-1 and TC-2 are antibacterial proteins, in vitro released from activated platelet alpha-granules. CTAP-III(1-81) is more potent than CTAP-III desensitize chemokine-induced neutrophil activation.Post-translationalProteolytic removal of residues 1-9 produces the active peptide connective tissue-activating peptide III (CTAP-III) (low-affinity platelet factor IV (LA-PF4)). Proteolytic removal of residues 1-13 produces the active peptide beta-thromboglobulin, which is released from platelets along with platelet factor 4 and platelet-derived growth factor. NAP-2(1-66) is produced by proteolytical processing, probably after secretion by leukocytes other than neutrophils. NAP-2(73) and NAP-2(74) seem not be produced by proteolytical processing of secreted precursors but are released in an active form from platelets...

It is mitogenic for fibroblasts and smooth muscle but not endothelial cells. It is able to bind EGF receptors with higher affinity than EGF itself and is a far more potent mitogen for smooth muscle cells than EGF. Also acts as a diphtheria toxin receptor.Background:Human HB-EGF (Heparin-Binding EGF-like growth factor) is a 12-16 kDa member of the EGF family of peptide growth factors (1-3). Also known as the DTR (diphtheria toxin receptor), it is further classified as a group 2 ErbB ligand based on its ability to activate both the EGF/ErbB1 and ErbB4 receptors (4, 5). HB-EGF is synthesized as a 208 amino acid (aa) type I transmembrane preproprecursor (1, 6). It contains a 19 aa signal sequence, a 43 aa prosegment, an 86 aa mature region (aa 63-148), an 11 aa juxtamembrane cleavage peptide, a 24 aa transmembrane segment, and a 25 aa cytoplasmic tail (aa 184-208). As an integral membrane protein, HB-EGF is expressed as a 19-27 kDa protein in mammalian cells (7-9). The variability in molecular weight (MW) is attributed to heterogeneity in glycosylation and/or the utilization of multiple proteolytic cleavage sites during maturation. Mature HB-EGF is a soluble peptide that arises from proteolytic processing of the transmembrane form. It possesses an EGF-like domain between aa 104-144, and a heparin-binding motif between aa 93‑113. Although the aa range for "mature" HB-EGF is typically stated to be Asp63-Leu148, potential N-terminal start (cleavage) sites also exist at Gly32, Arg73, Val74, Ser77 and Ala82 (8, 10-12). Thus, differential processing (in part) likely accounts for the 16-23 kDa range in MW noted for mammalian-derived mature HB-EGF. Proteases suggested to contribute to HB-EGF processing include TACE, MMP-3 and -7, ADAM-17 and ADAM-12 (11, 13-16). When expressed recombinantly in E.coli, HB-EGF (aa 73-148) runs at 14 kDa in SDS-PAGE; when expressed in Baculovirus, HB-EGF (aa 63-148, 77-148 and 32-148) runs at 18 kDa, 15 kDa, and 19 kDa respectively (8, 12, 17). Over aa 63-148, human HB-EGF- shares 76% and 73% aa sequence identity with rat and mouse HB-EGF, respectively (1, 18). Cells known to express HB-EGF include bronchial epithelium (19), visceral and vascular smooth muscle (20, 21), CD4+ T cells (22), cardiac muscle (23), glomerular podocytes (24), keratinocytes (13) and IL-10-secreting regulatory macrophages (25). As noted earlier, HB-EGF is known to bind to both 170 kDa EGFR and 180 kDa ErbB4, and through heterodimerization, ErbB2 (13, 26). Activity associated with ErbB4 binding appears to be limited to non-mitogenic actions, while EGFR binding induces both mitogenic and non-mitogenic activity...
