| Protein Construction |
TNFRSF10B (Glu52-Ser183)
Accession # O14763 |
|
| Purity |
> 97% as analyzed by SDS-PAGE
> 97% as analyzed by HPLC |
| Endotoxin Level |
< 1 EU/μg of protein by LAL method |
| Biological Activity |
Fully biologically active when compared to standard. rHusTRAIL-R2 reduced the production of LPS-induced TNF by its ability to neutralize endogenous TRAIL in fresh human PBMC. In this assay, endogenous TRAIL is induced during a 24 hour exposure to LPS (10 ng/ml) but in the presence of rHusTRAIL-R2, TRAIL-induced TNF is suppressed. |
| Expression System |
E. coli |
| Theoretical Molecular Weight |
14.8 kDa |
| Formulation |
Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution in PBS, pH 7.4. |
| Reconstitution |
It is recommended that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Reconstitute the lyophilized powder in sterile distilled water or aqueous buffer containing 0.1 % BSA to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/ml. |
| Storage & Stability |
Upon receiving, this product remains stable for up to 6 months at -70°C or -20°C. Upon reconstitution, the product should be stable for up to 1 week at 4°C or up to 3 months at -20°C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. |
| Target Background |
Tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand Receptor 2 (TRAIL-R2) is a cell-surface receptor involved in tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL)-induced cell-death signaling.1 The death ligand TRAIL bears high potential as a new anticancer agent, as binding to the death receptors TRAIL-R1 or TRAIL-R2 triggers apoptosis in most cancer cells.2 TRAIL-R2 has been shown to be associated with a decrease in the survival rates of breast cancer patients. |
