Toll-like receptor 5 (TLR5), partial, human, recombinant

Organism: Homo sapiens (Human). Source: E.coli. Expression Region: 661-858aa. Protein Length: Partial. Tag Info: C-terminal 6xHis-tagged. Target Protein Sequence: TKFRGFCFIC YKTAQRLVFK DHPQGTEPDM YKYDAYLCFS SKDFTWVQNA LLKHLDTQYS DQNRFNLCFE ERDFVPGENR IANIQDAIWN SRKIVCLVSR HFLRDGWCLE AFSYAQGRCL SDLNSALIMV VVGSLSQYQL MKHQSIRGFV QKQQYLRWPE DFQDVGWFLH KLSQQILKKE KEKKKDNNIP LQTVATIS. Purity: Greater than 90% as determined by SDS-PAGE. Endotoxin: n/a. Biological Activity: n/a. Form: Liquid or Lyophilized powder. Buffer: If the delivery form is liquid, the default storage buffer is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 5%-50% glycerol. If the delivery form is lyophilized powder, the buffer before lyophilization is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 6% Trehalose, pH 8.0. Reconstitution: We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Please reconstitute protein in deionized sterile water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL.We recommend to add 5-50% of glycerol (final concentration) and aliquot for long-term storage at -20 °C/-80 °C. Our default final concentration of glycerol is 50%. Customers could use it as reference. Storage: The shelf life is related to many factors, storage state, buffer ingredients, storage temperature and the stability of the protein itself. Generally, the shelf life of liquid form is 6 months at -20 °C/-80 °C. The shelf life of lyophilized form is 12 months at -20 °C/-80 °C. Notes: Repeated freezing and thawing is not recommended. Store working aliquots at 4 °C for up to one week. Relevance: Pattern recognition receptor (PRR) located on the cell surface that participates in the activation of innate immunity and inflammatory response. Recognizes small molecular motifs named pathogen-associated molecular pattern (PAMPs) expressed by pathogens and microbe-associated molecular patterns (MAMPs) usually expressed by resident microbiota. Upon ligand binding such as bacterial flagellins, recruits intracellular adapter proteins MYD88 and TRIF leading to NF-kappa-B activation, cytokine secretion and induction of the inflammatory response. Plays thereby an important role in the relationship between the intestinal epithelium and enteric microbes and contributes to the gut microbiota composition throughout life. Reference: n/a.
