Product details
The Human CD244 Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) kit (2B4) (ab213758) is designed for the quantitative measurement of Human CD244 in cell culture supernatants, cell lysates, tissue homogenates, serum and plasma (heparin, EDTA).
The ELISA kit is based on standard sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay technology. A monoclonal antibody from mouse specific for CD244/2B4 has been pre-coated onto 96-well plates. Standards (Expression system for standard: NSO; Immunogen sequence: C22-R221) and test samples are added to the wells, a biotinylated detection polyclonal antibody from goat specific for CD244/2B4 is added subsequently and then followed by washing with PBS or TBS buffer. Avidin-Biotin-Peroxidase Complex is added and unbound conjugates are washed away with PBS or TBS buffer. HRP substrate TMB is used to visualize HRP enzymatic reaction. TMB is catalyzed by HRP to produce a blue color product that changed into yellow after adding acidic stop solution. The density of yellow is proportional to the Human CD244/2B4 amount of sample captured in plate.
CD244 (Cluster of Differentiation 244) is a human protein encoded by the CD244 gene. It is also known as Natural Killer Cell Receptor 2B4. Members of the CD2 family adhere to each other instead, the cell surface glycoprotein 2B4 is related to CD2 and is implicated in the regulation of NK and T-cell function. The 2B4 gene was mapped to 1q22 on gene map, where SLAM, CD48, CD84 and LY9 are also located. Using recombinant human NK cell-activating ligand 2B4 fused to domains 3 and 4 of rodent Cd4 and flow cytometric analysis, It was found that CD48 binds to 2B4. BIAcore surface plasmon resonance analysis showed that the affinity of CD48 for 2B4 is approximately 10-fold higher than that shown for CD48 and CD2.

Biological function summary
2B4 plays an integrative role within cellular immune response. When engaged by its ligand CD48 it regulates activation signals in NK cells and T cells. 2B4 is not a standalone entity but functions as a part of a larger cluster of differentiation molecules. This cluster including CD244.1 and CD244.2 facilitates signal transduction leading to immune modulation. The receptor acts as either an activating or inhibitory agent depending on the expression levels of its associated signaling proteins like SAP (SLAM-associated protein).
Pathways
Cross-linking of 2B4 forms a critical axis in multiple immune pathways such as the NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity and adaptive immune response pathway. It interacts closely with SAP a protein that modulates downstream signaling events leading to immune cell activation or suppression. Besides SAP 2B4 collaboratively participates with other SLAM family receptors. These interactions optimize the balance between immune activation and tolerance ensuring appropriate immune responses.
