Recombinant Human Tumor Necrosis Factor (ligand) Superfamily, Member 18

• Cat.No.: TNFSF18-6887H
• Product Overview: Recombinant human TNFSF18 protein was expressed in E. coli and purified by conventional chromatography, after refolding of the isolated inclusion bodies in a renaturation buffer. MW: 14.6 kDa.

Specification

• Description: TNFSF18 belongs to the tumor necrosis factor(TNF) ligand family. This cytokine is a ligand for receptor TNFRSF18/AITR/GITR. It is Important for interactions between activated T-lymphocytes and endothelial cells and may modulate T-lymphocyte survival in peripheral tissues. This cytokine is also found to be expressed in endothelial cells, and is thought to be important for interaction between T lymphocytes and endothelial cells.
