Anti-DR6/TNFRSF21 Antibody Picoband® Fluoro488 Conjugated

This gene encodes a member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily. The encoded protein activates nuclear factor kappa-B and mitogen-activated protein kinase 8 (also called c-Jun N-terminal kinase 1), and induces cell apoptosis. Through its death domain, the encoded receptor interacts with tumor necrosis factor receptor type 1-associated death domain (TRADD) protein, which is known to mediate signal transduction of tumor necrosis factor receptors. Knockout studies in mice suggest that this gene plays a role in T-helper cell activation, and may be involved in inflammation and immune regulation.

Vasoactive intestinal polypeptide receptor 1; VIP-R-1; Pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide type II receptor; PACAP type II receptor; PACAP-R-2; PACAP-R2; VPAC1; VIPR1

A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence in the middle region of human DR6/TNFRSF21, which shares 84.2% amino acid (aa) sequence identity with both mouse and rat DR6/TNFRSF21.

In lung, HT-29 colonic epithelial cells, Raji B-lymphoblasts. Lesser extent in brain, heart, kidney, liver and placenta. Not expressed in CD4+ or CD8+ T-cells. Expressed in the T-cell lines HARRIS, HuT 78, Jurkat and SUP-T1, but not in the T- cell lines Peer, MOLT-4, HSB and YT.
