Enterotoxin type D Protein, S. aureus, Recombinant (His & SUMO)

Staphylococcal enterotoxin that activates the host immune system by binding as unprocessed molecules to major histocompatibility (MHC) complex class II and T-cell receptor (TCR) molecules. In turn, this ternary complex activates a large number of T-lymphocytes initiating a systemic release of proinflammatory cytokines. In addition, induces B-cell proliferation and differentiation in the presence of T-cells. Causes also the intoxication staphylococcal food poisoning syndrome. Enterotoxin type D Protein, S. aureus, Recombinant (His & SUMO) is expressed in E. coli expression system with N-6xHis-SUMO tag. The predicted molecular weight is 42.9 kDa and the accession number is P20723.
