TWEAK Receptor/TWEAK R/TNFRSF12A Protein(C-Fc) (recombinant human)

Protein Construction: Recombinant Human TNF-related Weak Inducer of Apoptosis Receptor is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Glu28-Trp79 is expressed with a Fc tag at the C-terminus. Sequence: Glu28-Trp79. Fusion tag: C-Fc Endotoxin: < 1.0 EU per µg as determined by the LAL method. Apparent Molecular Mass: 35 kDa. Protein function: Tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 12A(TNFRSF12A) is also known as Fibroblast growth factor-inducible immediate-early response protein 14, FN14, CD266 antigen and tweak-receptor. TNFRSF12A is a single-pass type I membrane protein, including a 27 aa signal peptide, a 53 aa extracellular domain, a 21 aa transmembrane domain and a 28 aa cytoplasmic domain. TNFRSF12A is highly expressed in heart, placenta and kidney. TNFRSF12A can be induced by FGF1 and phorbol ester. TNFRSF12A binds to TWEAK/TNFSF12A to initiate a signal transduction cascade, causing different cellular responses such as cell death, cell proliferation, and angiogenesis. Protein function: Receptor for TNFSF12/TWEAK. Weak inducer of apoptosis in some cell types. Promotes angiogenesis and the proliferation of endothelial cells. May modulate cellular adhesion to matrix proteins. [The UniProt Consortium]
