Product Details

Purpose: Flagellin (high purity)

Specificity: Binds to human and mouse TLR5 (Toll-like receptor 5).

Cross-Reactivity: Human, Mouse

Endotoxin Level: <0.001EU/μg purified protein (LAL test, Lonza).

Biological Activity Comment: Activation of TLR5 in human epithelial cell assays based on NF-kappaB luciferase fusions, on expression of IL-8 (CXCL8), CCL20, inducible nitric oxide synthase, beta-defensin 2 and matrilysin (MMP-7). Maturation of dendritic cells in in vitro and in vivo assays. Adjuvant activity on foreign antigens delivered by subcutaneous and intranasal routes in mice. TLR5 can be stimulated in vitro by Flagellin (high Purity) at a concentration of 5-50ng /ml and in vivo at a starting concentration of 0.1-1μg /mouse.

Target Details

Target: Flagellin (FliC)

Alternative Name: Flagellin

Background:

FliC

Flagellin is the subunit protein which polymerizes to form the filaments of bacterial flagella. It activates the innate immune system through the receptor Toll-like Receptor 5 (TLR5) and the intracellular protein NLRC4 (NLR family CARD domain-containing protein 4).
