More Information
Product Details
Synonyms FliC
Product Type Protein
Properties
Source/Host E. coli
Sequence

Native flagellin [FliC] from Salmonella enterica Serovar Typhimurium strain ATCC14028 (aa 1-495).

Crossreactivity Human
Mouse
Specificity

Binds to human and mouse TLR5 (Toll-like receptor 5).

Biological Activity

Activation of TLR5 in human epithelial cell assays based on NF-κB luciferase fusions, on expression of IL-8 (CXCL8), CCL20, inducible nitric oxide synthase, β-defensin 2 and matrilysin (MMP-7). Maturation of dendritic cells in in vitro and in vivo assays. Adjuvant activity on foreign antigens delivered by subcutaneous and intranasal routes in mice. TLR5 can be stimulated in vitro by Flagellin (rec.) (untagged) (highly active) at a concentration of 5-50ng/ml and in vivo at a starting concentration of 0.1-1µg/mouse.

Description

Flagellin is the subunit protein which polymerizes to form the filaments of bacterial flagella. It activates the innate immune system through the receptor Toll-like Receptor 5 (TLR5) and the intracellular protein NLRC4 (NLR family CARD domain-containing protein 4).
