Human PD-L2 Protein, ECD, Fc-fusion, Biotinylated, Recombinant
PD-L2 (programmed death ligand 2), also referred to as B7-DC or CD273, is a single pass type I transmembrane glycoprotein that belongs to the B7 family of the Ig superfamily. It was originally identified as a homolog of PD-L1. Like PD-L1 and other B7 family members, PD-L2 contains one Ig V-like and one Ig C-like domain in the extracellular region. Among the family members, they share about 20-25% amino acid identity. PDL1 and PDL2 share ~41% amino acid sequence identity and have similar functions. PD-L2 is expressed on antigen presenting cells, placental endothelium and medullary thymic epithelial cells, and can be induced by LPS and INF-γ. PD-L2 and PD-L1 are two ligands for PD-1/CD279, a member of the CD28/CTLA4 family receptors that play critical roles in regulating T cell activation and immune tolerance. Interaction with PD-1, which has a cytoplasmic immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif (ITIM), inhibits T-cell proliferation and cytokine production. PD-L2 is also a dendritic cell molecule with co-stimulatory properties for T cells. The interaction of PD-L2/PD-1 has a 2-6-fold higher affinity than that of B7-H1/PD-1.

Technical Data: Determination of Binding Affinity to Human PD-1 by ELISA
Recombinant PD-1-Fc protein (SKU#FCL0763) and Fc protein alone (SKU#FCL0029) was immobilized at 100 ng/well on a 96-well NuncMaxisorp plate for a functional ELISA with serially diluted biotinylated PD-L2-Fc protein (SKU#FCL0783B). Fc protein alone was used as a negative control to demonstrate the specificity of PD-1:PD-L2 binding under the experimental conditions. The binding curve was fit and KD (the concentration of 50% of max binding) was calculated for PD-1: PD-L2 binding to be 98 ± 4 ng/ml with a linear binding range between 25 and 400 ng/ml. In comparison, PD-L2 binds to PD-1 with 4-5 fold higher affinity than PD-L1 does.
