General description

Genetically engineered truncated protein G; retains affinity for IgG, but lacks albumin- and Fab- binding sites and membrane-binding regions.
Protein G is a group G Streptococcus protein and is a large multi-domain cell wall protein. It interacts with the Fc region of IgG (immunolglobulin) through its repeating 55-amino acid domain. Strain GX7809 and GX7805 contain two and three such protein repeats respectively.

Application

Protein G has been used for the analysis of mAb (monoclonal antibody) synergy towards hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) using surface plasmon resonance (SPR), and for serum IgG galactosylation obtained from RA (rheumatoid arthrtitis) patients and MRL-lpr mice.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Protein G is implicated in the evasion of host defence response by Streptococcus, via its protein binding properties. It is interacts with α2-micorglobulin which is a predominant inhibitor of human plasma.

Physical form

Lyophilized from water.

Straight long-range surface plasmon-polariton (LRSPP) waveguides as biosensors for label-free detection are discussed. The sensors consist of 5-μm-wide 35-nm-thick gold stripes embedded in a low-index optical-grade fluoropolymer (CYTOPTM) with fluidic channels etched to the Au surface of the stripes. This

Defensins are antimicrobial peptides playing a role in innate immunity, in epithelial cell regeneration, and in carcinogenesis of inflammation-triggered malignancies. We analyzed this role in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) in the context of its association with chronic pancreatitis (CP). Human
