Anti-CD178 (FAS Ligand, CD95L, Tumor Necrosis Factor Superfamily 6, TNFSF6)

CD178 cell surface antigen is a 40kD glycoprotein also known as Fas ligand (CD95L). CD178 is a member of the TNF family, which is expressed by activated T lymphocytes and NK cells. The protein may exist as either a membrane bound or a cleaved soluble form. CD178 plays an important role in T cell development and cytotoxicity. Binding of CD178 to Fas (CD95) results in the induction of apoptosis. Applications: Suitable for use in Flow Cytometry, ELISA and Immunoprecipitation. Does not work with Western Blot.
