LTβR (human):Fc (human) (rec.) (non-lytic)
Product Details | |
---|---|
Synonyms | Lymphotoxin-beta Receptor; Tumor Necrosis Factor Receptor 2 Related Protein; Tumor Necrosis Factor C Receptor; Tumor Necrosis Factor Receptor Superfamily Member 3; TNFRSF3 |
Product Type | Protein |
Properties | |
Source/Host | CHO cells |
Sequence |
The extracellular domain of human LTβR (aa 31-225) is fused to the N-terminus of the Fc region of a mutant human IgG1. |
Crossreactivity | Human |
Biological Activity |
Shows the biological function of the LTβR moiety and exerts a prolonged circulating half-life caused by the modified Fc domain. |
Purity | ≥98% (SDS-PAGE) |
Endotoxin Content | <0.06EU/μg protein (LAL test; Lonza). |
Reconstitution | Reconstitute at 100μg/ml in sterile PBS. |
Formulation | Lyophilized from 0.2μm-filtered solution in PBS. |
Protein Negative Control | |
Other Product Data |
Non-lytic: Acts as a long lasting fusion protein which only binds to the receptor. Mutations to the complement (C1q) and FcgR I binding sites of the IgGs Fc fragment render the fusion proteins incapable of antibody directed cytotoxicity (ADCC) and complement directed cytotoxicity (CDC). |
Declaration | Manufactured by Chimerigen. |
Shipping and Handling | |
Shipping | BLUE ICE |

The LTβR activates two different NF-κB pathways that lead to distinct patterns of gene induction, including selected chemokines, and the cytokine BAFF, which is essential for the survival of mature B lymphocytes. LTβR activates the classical NF-κB (relA/p50) pathway, like the type 1 TNF receptor (TNFR1), that regulates proinflammatory genes, like the chemokine MIP1β. However, LTβR, unlike TNFR1, also activates the processing of p100 to form RelB/p52 complexes, which activate genes involved in lymphoid organ formation and lymphocyte survival.
