表达区间及表达系统（Source）
Mouse Claudin-18.2 Full Length Protein (VLP) (CL2-M52P3) is expressed from human 293 cells (HEK293). It contains AA Met 1 - Val 264 (Accession # P56857-3).
Predicted N-terminus: Met 1
蛋白结构（Molecular Characterization）
Virus-like particles(VLPs) are formed by self-assembly of envelop/capsid proteins from viruses. Membrane Proteins can be constituted in-situ with VLPs produced from HEK293 cell cultures. These VLPs concentrate conformationally intact membrane proteins directly on the cell surface and produce soluble, high-concentration proteins perfect for immunization and antibody screening.
The VLPs provide the display of properly folded membrane proteins in their native cellular membrane in a compact size of 100~300 nm diameter (similar to the size of most viruses) making it optimal targets for dendritic cells in vivo and surface attachment for phage display.
制剂（Formulation）
The VLPs are highly immunogenic, so the immunization strategy should be optimized (antigen dose, regimen and adjuvant).
Supplied as 0.2 μm filtered solution in PBS, 0.2 M Arginine, pH7.4 with trehalose as protectant.

活性（Bioactivity）-ELISA
Immobilized Mouse Claudin-18.2 Full Length Protein (VLP) (Cat. No. CL2-M52P3) at 5 μg/mL (100 μL/well) can bind Monoclonal Anti-Chimeric Claudin-18.2 Antibody with a linear range of 0.2-3 ng/mL (QC tested).
Protocol
均一性（Identity）-DLS
The mean peak Radius of VLP is 65-85 nm with more than 95% intensity as determined by dynamic light scattering (DLS).
背景（Background）
Claudins (CLDNs) are a family of proteins that form tight junctions and maintain the polarity of epithelial and endothelial cells. CLDN18 is specifically expressed in the stomach and lung. Of the two CLDN18 isoform transcripts produced by alternative splicing, CLDN18.2 is a highly selective gastric lineage marker that determines the gastric phenotype in a neoplastic condition, whereas CLDN18.1 is lung specific. CLDN18.2 is a highly selective gastric lineage antigen expressed exclusively on short-lived differentiated gastric epithelial cells where it has only limited accessibility to antibody drugs.14,15 CLDN18.2 is maintained during the course of malignant transformation and thus frequently displayed on the surface of human gastric cancer cells.
