Recombinant human LITAF protein
Lipopolysaccharide-induced TNF-alpha factor, also known as LITAF, is a small integral membrane protein of lysosome/late endosome. LITAF mediates the expression of inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-alpha in Lipopolysaccharide-induced processes. LITAF binds to STAT6B, a member of the STAT6 family forming a complex on the TNF-alpha promoter that modulates TNF activity. High levels of expression of LITAF mRNA have been observed predominantly in the placenta, peripheral blood leukocytes, lymph nodes and spleen. Recombinant human LITAF protein, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E. coli.
