RAET1L Human

Source:Sf9, Baculovirus cells. Physical Appearance:Sterile filtered colorless solution. Biological ActivityDetermined by its binding ability in a functional ELISA with Human KLRK1. RAET1L plays a role as a stress-induced ligand for NKG2D receptor. Retinoic Acid Early Transcript 1L (RAET1L) is linked to the cell membrane by the GPI anchor. HCMV infection triggers RAET1Lâ€TMsexpression but HCMV alters its function. HCMV-encoded UL16 glycoprotein retains RAET1L/ULBP6 inside the cells, preventing it from reaching the cell surface and being exposed to cells of the immune system. RAET1L has a more restricted expression profile in cell lines and primary human tissues than other NKG2D ligands. RAET1L Human Recombinant produced in Sf9 Baculovirus cells is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 202 amino acids (26-218 a.a) and having a molecular mass of 22.9kDa.RAET1L is fused to a 6 amino acid His-tag at C-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
