Human LIGHT / TNFSF14 Protein, Fc Tag, active trimer (MALS verified)

Tumor necrosis factor ligand superfamily member 14 (LIGHT) is a tumor necrosis factor (TNF) superfamily ligand that regulates T cell immune responses by signaling through the herpes virus entry mediator (HVEM) and the lymphotoxin beta receptor (LTbetaR) . LIGHT has emerged as a potent initiator of T cell co-stimulation signals effecting CTL-mediated tumor rejection, allograft rejection and graft versus host disease. Constitutive expression of LIGHT leads to tissue destruction and autoimmune-like disease syndromes.

This protein carries a human IgG1 Fc tag at the N-terminus. The protein has a calculated MW of 82.6 kDa. The protein migrates as 116 kDa under non-reducing (NR) condition (SDS-PAGE) due to glycosylation.

-20°C to -70°C for 12 months in lyophilized state; -70°C for 3 months under sterile conditions after reconstitution. For long term storage, the product should be stored at lyophilized state at -20°C or lower.

Immobilized Human HVEM, His Tag (Cat. No. HVM-H52E9) at 5 μg/mL (100 μL/well) can bind Human LIGHT Protein, Fc Tag (Cat. No. LIT-H5269) with a linear range of 0.2-4 ng/mL (QC tested).
