Product Overview

Description	Recombinant Human Transcobalamin II Receptor is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Ser36-Val231 is expressed with a human IgG1 Fc tag at the C-terminus.
Accession	Q9NPF0
Synonym	CD320 antigen;8D6 antigen;FDC-signaling molecule 8D6;FDC-SM-8D6;Transcobalamin receptor;TCblR;CD320
Gene Background	CD320 antigen is also known as 8D6 antigen，FDC-signaling molecule 8D6，Transcobalamin receptor and 8D6A. It is a single-pass type I membrane protein and containing two LDL-receptor class A domains. CD320 has been recently discovered and reported as a follicular dendritic cell (FDC) protein. CD320 can augments the proliferation of plasma cells precursors generated by IL-10. CD320 also founctions a receptor for the cellular uptake of transcobalamin bound cobalamin. Defects in CD320 are the cause of methylmalonic aciduria type TCblR (MMATC) which is a metabolic disorder.

Target Details

Target Function	Receptor for transcobalamin saturated with cobalamin (TCbl). Plays an important role in cobalamin uptake. Plasma membrane protein that is expressed on follicular dendritic cells (FDC) and mediates interaction with germinal center B cells. Functions as costimulator to promote B cell responses to antigenic stimuli; promotes B cell differentiation and proliferation. Germinal center-B (GC-B) cells differentiate into memory B-cells and plasma cells (PC) through interaction with T-cells and follicular dendritic cells (FDC). CD320 augments the proliferation of PC precursors generated by IL-10.
Subcellular Location	Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein.
Database References	HGNC: 16692 OMIM: 606475 KEGG: hsa:51293 STRING: 9606.ENSP00000301458 UniGene: Hs.558499
Associated Diseases	Methylmalonic aciduria, transient, due to transcobalamin receptor defect (MMATC)
Tissue Specificity	Detected in the germinal center (GC) of lymphoid follicles (at protein level). Expressed abundantly on follicular dendritic cells (FDCs).

Gene Functions References

It has been proposed that the transcobalamin 2 receptor (TCN2R) is associated with idiopathic recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA). The findings showed no significant association between TCN2R rs2336573 polymorphisms and the risk/protection of recurrent spontaneous abortion. PMID: 29537328
the crystal structure of human holo-transcobalamin (TC) in complex with the extracellular domain of CD320, visualizing the structural basis of the TC-CD320 interaction, is reported. PMID: 27411955
There was no significant difference in the expression of soluble csf CD320 between patients and controls. PMID: 28486088
Although not significant when corrected for multiple testing, eight single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in two genes, transcobalamin II (TCN2) and the transcobalamin II-receptor (TCblR), were found to influence several clinical traits of cobalamin deficiency. PMID: 25657319
The soluble transcobalamin receptor is present in cerebrospinal fluid and correlates to dementia-related biomarkers tau proteins and amyloid-beta. PMID: 26205293
Transcobalamin II (TCN2 67A>G and TCN2 776C>G) and transcobalamin II receptor (TCblR 1104C>T) polymorphisms in Korean patients with idiopathic recurrent spontaneous abortion PMID: 24750446
The high urinary concentration and the strong correlation between urinary and serum sCD320 suggests that sCD320 is filtered in the kidney. PMID: 24015289
Data indicate that only the extracellular region (aa 32-229) of TCblR/CD320 is needed for transcobalamin-cobalamin (TC-Cbl) binding. PMID: 23603833
Proliferating cancer cells express measurable levels of TCII and TCII-R. PMID: 24122983
TCblr SNP were associated with omphalocele suggests that disruption of methylation reactions, in which folate, vitamin B12, and homocysteine play critical parts, may be a risk factor for omphalocele. PMID: 22116453
Our data suggest that variation in TCblR plays a role in neural tube defect risk and that these variants may modulate cobalamin metabolism. PMID: 20577008
the cell cycle associated expression of TCblR appears to be tightly regulated in synchrony with the proliferative phase of the cell cycle. PMID: 20627121
Analysis of TCblR/CD320, the gene for the receptor for cellular uptake of transcobalamin-bound cobalamin, identified a homozygous single codon deletion, c.262_264GAG (p.E88del), resulting in the loss of a glutamic acid residue. PMID: 20524213
Confocal microscopy of tonsil sections revealed co-localization of CD320 with CD19 and CD38 but not with CD3 indicating that germinal center B cells expressed CD320 in addition to follicular dendritic cells. PMID: 19123977
This gene encodes a receptor for cellular uptake of transcobalamin-bound vitamin B12. PMID: 18779389

Proteins are sensitive to heat, and freeze-drying can preserve the activity of the majority of proteins. It improves protein stability, extends storage time, and reduces shipping costs. However, freeze-drying can also lead to the loss of the active portion of the protein and cause aggregation and denaturation issues. Nonetheless, these adverse effects can be minimized by incorporating protective agents such as stabilizers, additives, and excipients, and by carefully controlling various lyophilization conditions.

Commonly used protectant include saccharides, polyols, polymers, surfactants, some proteins and amino acids etc. We usually add 8% (mass ratio by volume) of trehalose and mannitol as lyoprotectant. Trehalose can significantly prevent the alter of the protein secondary structure, the extension and aggregation of proteins during freeze-drying process; mannitol is also a universal applied protectant and fillers, which can reduce the aggregation of certain proteins after lyophilization.

Our protein products do not contain carrier protein or other additives (such as bovine serum albumin (BSA), human serum albumin (HSA) and sucrose, etc., and when lyophilized with the solution with the lowest salt content, they often cannot form A white grid structure, but a small amount of protein is deposited in the tube during the freeze-drying process, forming a thin or invisible transparent protein layer.

Reminder: Before opening the tube cap, we recommend that you quickly centrifuge for 20-30 seconds in a small centrifuge, so that the protein attached to the tube cap or the tube wall can be aggregated at the bottom of the tube. Our quality control procedures ensure that each tube contains the correct amount of protein, and although sometimes you can't see the protein powder, the amount of protein in the tube is still very precise.
