Flagellin (rec.) (untagged) (highly active)
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. |

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).
