Recombinant Human TRAIL/Apo2L


 
 
Synonyms :
TNF-related apoptosis-inducing Ligand, TNFSF10, Apo2 Ligand, TL2
Description :
TRAIL/Apo2L is a cytotoxic protein, which activates rapid apoptosis in tumor cells, but not in normal cells. TRAIL induced apoptosis is achieved through binding to two death-signaling receptors, DR4 and DR5. These receptors belong to the TNFR superfamily of transmembrane proteins and contain a cytoplasmic "death domain", which activates the cells apoptotic machinery. Recombinant human soluble TRAIL/Apo2L is a 168 amino acid polypeptide (19.6 kDa), consisting of the TNF homologous portion of the extracellular domain of the full length TRAIL/Apo2L protein.
Catalog #:
310-04
Source :
E.coli
Purity :
Greater than 98% by SDS-PAGE gel and HPLC analysis.
Endotoxin Level :
Endotoxin level is less than 0.1 ng per μg (1EU/μg).
Biological Activity :
Assay#1:Determined by its ability to induce apoptotic cell death in TRAIL-sensitive U343MG cells. The expected ED50 for this effect is 1.0-3.0 ng/ml. 

Assay#2:Measured by its ability to induce apoptosis in LN-18 cells (human glioblastoma cells). The expected ED50 for this effect is 0.8 - 2.0 ng/ml.
