Siglec-8 is also known as SIGLEC8, SAF2, SIGLEC-8, SIGLEC8L and sialic acid binding Ig like lectin 8.
Siglec-8 was first identified by CD33 homology screening of ESTs from a cDNA library generated from a patient diagnosed with idiopathic hypereosinophilic syndrome and was originally termed SAF-2 (sialoadhesin family 2).
At the tissue level, Siglec-8 mRNA was found to be most highly expressed in lung, PBMCs, spleen, and kidney.
Two splice variants of Siglec-8 exist.
The initially characterized form contains 431 amino acid residues in total, subsequently, a longer form of Siglec-8, initially termed Siglec-8L.
Both forms of Siglec-8 are found in eosinophils and contain a V-set domain with lectin activity and two C2-type Ig repeat domains in the extracellular region.
特徴
This protein carries a human IgG1 Fc tag at the C-terminus.
The protein has a calculated MW of 64.3 kDa.
The protein migrates as 70-80 kDa under reducing (R) condition (SDS-PAGE) due to glycosylation.
