Mouse SLAMF7, recombinant (C-6His)

Recombinant Mouse SLAM Family Member 7 is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Ser23-Gly224 is expressed with a 6His tag at the C-terminus. Protein function: Self-ligand receptor of the signaling lymphocytic activation molecule (SLAM) family. SLAM receptors triggered by homo- or heterotypic cell-cell interactions are modulating the activation and differentiation of a wide variety of immune cells and thus are involved in the regulation and interconnection of both innate and adaptive immune response. Activities are controlled by presence or absence of small cytoplasmic adapter proteins, SH2D1A/SAP and/or SH2D1B/EAT-2 (PubMed:19648922). Mediates natural killer (NK) cell activation through a SH2D1A-independent extracellular signal-regulated ERK-mediated pathway. Positively regulates NK cell functions by a mechanism dependent on the adapter SH2D1B. In addition to heterotypic NK cells-target cells interactions also homotypic interactions between NK cells may contribute to activation. However, in the absence of SH2D1B, inhibits NK cell function. Acts also inhibitory in T-cells (PubMed:19151721). May play a role in lymphocyte adhesion. In LPS-activated monocytes negatively regulates production of proinflammatory cytokines.
