Human programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1), is a type I membrane protein in the immunoglobulin superfamily and a member of the B7 Family of ligands. The recombinant PD-L1 protein dimer (CSP-24094-03) is a cis-homodimer (cis-dimer) and contains a PD-L1 extracellular domain (UniProt# Q9NZQ7, amino acids Phe19-Arg238) fused with a proprietary cis-dimer motif followed by a tandem His-Avi tag at the C-terminus. This dimeric protein is expressed in HEK293T cells. The recombinant human PD-L1 protein dimer is bioactive and can bind to PD-1. It also binds PD-L1-specific antibodies. This PD-L1 protein dimer can be used as an antigen for in vitro assays and antibody screening, and as an immunogen for immunization to generate antibodies targeting more conformational epitopes.

Background
Human programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1), is a Type I transmembrane protein in the immunoglobulin superfamily and a member of the B7 Family of ligands. PD-L1 is also known as cluster of differentiation 274 (CD274), B7 homolog 1 (B7H1, B7-H1), PDCD1L1, PDCD1LG1, and CD274 molecule. PD-L1 contains an extracellular domain with a distal immunoglobulin V-like (Ig-V-like) domain and proximal immunoglobulin C-like (Ig-C-like) domain, a transmembrane domain, and a cytoplasmic domain. PD-L1 is expressed on T cells, NK cells, macrophages, myeloid DCs, B cells, epithelial cells, and vascular endothelial cells. PD-L1 serves as an immunosuppressive ligand for PD-1 and the overexpression of PD-L1 on many tumor cells can prevent the immune system from attacking tumors. Inhibition of the interaction between PD-1 and PD-L1 can enhance antitumor activity, which has led to a new class of drugs called PD-1 inhibitors to activate the immune system and treat certain types of cancer. PD-L1 is highly expressed in a variety of malignancies, particularly lung cancer. PD-L1 exists as both a monomer and a dimer. Therefore, a recombinant protein mimicking the PD-L1 protein dimer conformation can be crucial for cancer therapeutic discovery.
