PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Description :
Recombinant Human T-cell Immunoglobulin and Mucin Domain-containing Protein 4 is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Glu25-Leu315 is expressed with a 6His tag at the C-terminus.Formulation :
Lyophilized from a 0.2 米m filtered solution of PBS, pH7.4.Purity :
Greater than 95% as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE.Endotoxin :
Less than 0.1 ng/ug (1 EU/ug) as determined by LAL test.Reconstitution :
Always centrifuge tubes before opening. Do not mix by vortex or pipetting.It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 米g/ml.Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water.Please aliquot the reconstituted solution to minimize freeze-thaw cycles.Storage :
Lyophilized protein should be stored at < -20~C, though stable at room temperature for 3 weeks.Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 4-7~C for 2-7 days.Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at < -20~C for 3 months.Background :
T-cell Immunoglobulin and Mucin Domain-containing Protein 4(TIM-4) belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily, is a member of the TIM family of immune regulating proteins. TIMs are type I transmembrane proteins with one Ig-like V domain and one Ser/Thr-rich mucin domain. Structurally, TIM-4 is distinguished from other TIMs by the presence of an RGD motif in its Ig domain and the lack of a site for tyrosine phosphorylation in its cytoplasmic tail. The mucin domain in TIM-4 is larger than in TIM-1 or TIM-3. TIM-4 is expressed by macrophages and mature dendritic cells but not by lymphocytes. it is Involved in regulating T-cell proliferation and lymphotoxin signaling.The interaction of TIM-4 with TIM-1 induces costimulatory and hyperproliferative signals in T cells. TIM-4 binds specifically to TIM-1 which is also the cellular receptor for the hepatitis A virus, and has been implicated in the development of asthma.RELATED PRODUCTS
