Description générale

Keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) is a large, multi-subunit, O2-carrying, metalloprotein. This high molecular weight glycoprotein is extracted from a marine snail species called Megathura crenulate.

Application

Hemocyanin, Keyhole Limpet, Megathura crenulata, high purity, endotoxin-free, sterile-liquid has been used as an antigen to test the polyreactivity of monoclonal antibody (mAb) using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA). It has also been used to immunize animals to study KLH-specific ex vivo recall responses and specific T-cell dependent antibody response (TDAR) in monkeys.

Actions biochimiques/physiologiques

Keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) stimulates both cell-mediated and humoral responses in animals and humans. It elicits immunostimulatory properties and also functions as a vaccine adjuvant. KLH serves as a carrier protein to produce antibodies and haptens like peptides and oligosaccharides. It is used to treat bladder cancer.

Conditionnement

Please refer to vial label for lot-specific concentration.

Avertissement

Toxicity: Standard Handling (A)

Forme physique

In 83 mM sodium phosphate, 150 mM NaCl, pH 7.2.

Notes préparatoires

KLH is an extremely large protein complex that has a tendency to aggregate and precipitate from solutions. Use a buffer when diluting KLH and maintain the magnesium concentration at ≥10 mM. Store KLH solutions at 4°C. DO NOT freeze, vortex or agitate to dissolve KLH. Freezing or agitating KLH will cause protein aggregation and precipitation.

Keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) attracts biomedical interest because of its remarkable immunostimulatory properties. Currently, KLH is used as vaccine adjuvant, carrier protein for haptens and as local treatment for bladder cancer. Since a quantitative human anti-KLH assay is lacking, it

Polyreactivity is the ability of a single antibody to bind to multiple molecularly distinct antigens and is a common feature of antibodies induced upon pathogen exposure. However, little is known about the role of polyreactivity during anti-influenza virus antibody responses.
