DcR3 / TNFRSF6B Recombinant Protein

Tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 6B (TNFRSF6B) is also known as Decoy Receptor 3 (DcR3), Decoy receptor for Fas ligand and M68, which belongs to the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily. TNFRSF6 is a soluble protein which contains four TNFR-Cys repeats. Unlike most of the other members of TNFR superfamily, TNFRSF6 is a soluble protein which contains no transmembrane domain. TNFRSF6B acts as a decoy receptor that competes with death receptors for ligand binding. The protein is postulated to play a regulatory role in suppressing FasL- and LIGHT-mediated cell death and T cell activation as well as to induce angiogenesis via neutralization of TL1A.

Lyophilized Protein should be stored at -20˚ C or lower for long term storage. Upon reconstitution, working aliquots should be stored at -20˚ C or -70˚ C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

This protein carries a human IgG1 Fc tag at the C-terminus. The protein has a calculated MW of 56.2 kDa. The protein migrates as 60-65 kDa under reducing (R) condition (SDS-PAGE) due to glycosylation.
