Thymic Stromal Lymphopoietin/TSLP (R127A, R130A, C-10His) (recombinant human)

Protein Construction: Recombinant Human Thymic stromal lymphopoietin is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Tyr29-Gln159(R127A, R130A) is expressed with a 10His tag at the C-terminus. Sequence: Tyr29-Gln159(R127A, R130A). Fusion tag: C-10His Endotoxin: < 1.0 EU per µg as determined by the LAL method. Apparent Molecular Mass: 20-27 kDa. Protein function: Thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) is a novel member of the hemopoietic cytokine family that promotes the development of B cells and shares overlapping activity with IL-7. The human TSLP protein comprises a 28 amino acids (aa) signal sequence and 131 aa mature region. Human TSLP has two isoforms lfTSLP and sfTSLP produced by alternative splicing . lfTSLP is expressed in a number of tissues including heart, liver and prostate, and sfTSLP (63aa) is predominantly expressed in keratinocytes of oral mucosa, skin and in salivary glands. In aa sequence level, Human TSLP displays about 43% identity with mouse TSLP.TSLP is a cytokine that functions mainly on myeloid cells, it induces the release of T cell-attracting chemokines from monocytes and enhances the maturation of CD11c(+) dendritic cells.TSLP has proliferative effects on the myeloid cell line and may initiate asthma or atopic dermatitis responses by directly activating mast cells . TSLP signals cells via the interleukin-7 receptor-alpha chain (IL-7Ralpha),shared with IL-7, together with the TSLP receptor (TSLPR) subunit. Recent studies indicate that TSLP and its receptor are novel therapeutic targets for rheumatoid arthritis,for increased intraarticular TSLP concentrations in patients has caused chemotaxis and activation of arthritogenic T cells. Protein function: [Isoform 1]: Cytokine that induces the release of T-cell- attracting chemokines from monocytes and, in particular, enhances the maturation of CD11c(+) dendritic cells. Can induce allergic inflammation by directly activating mast cells. [The UniProt Consortium]
