Recombinant Mouse KIM-1 Protein (His Tag)

Product Specifications

Background

TIM-1/KIM-1/HAVCR belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily that cosisits 305 amino acid (aa) . It is expressed by stimulated T-cells. TIM-1/KIM-1/HAVCR may play a role in T-helper cell development and the regulation of asthma and allergic diseases. Receptor for TIMD4. And may have a role in kidney injury and repair. Belongs to the T-cell and airway phenotype regulator (Tapr) locus, a single chromosomal region that confers reduced T-helper type 2 responsiveness and protects against airway hyperactivity (AHR), the hallmark of human asthma.
