INTRODUCTION
TNFRSF14, a member of the TNF receptor superfamily, is a type I transmembrane protein. TNFRSF14 is expressed in peripheral blood T cells, B cells, monocytes and in various tissues enriched in lymphoid cells. TNFRSF14 operates as a co-stimulatory factor for the activation of lymphoid cells and as a deterrent to infection by herpesvirus. Additionally, TNFRSF14 encourages the proliferation of T cells, and triggers apoptosis of various tumor cells.
DESCRIPTION
TNFRSF14 Human Recombinant produced in E. Coli is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 187 amino acids (39-202) and having a molecular mass of 19.7kDa.
TNFRSF14 is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
