- SynonymTNFSF18,AITRL,TL6,hGITRL,GITR Ligand
- SourceHuman GITR Ligand, Fc Tag (GIL-H526a) is expressed from human 293 cells (HEK293). It contains AA Gln 50 - Ser 177 (Accession # AAH69319.1).Request for sequence
- Molecular Characterization
This protein carries a human IgG1 Fc tag at the N-terminus.
The protein has a calculated MW of 41.5 kDa. The protein migrates as 45-48 kDa under reducing (R) condition (SDS-PAGE) due to glycosylation.
- EndotoxinLess than 1.0 EU per μg by the LAL method.
- Purity
>95% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
- Formulation
Lyophilized from 0.22 μm filtered solution in 50 mM Tris, 100 mM Glycine, pH7.5. Normally trehalose is added as protectant before lyophilization.

Human GITR Ligand, Fc Tag on SDS-PAGE under reducing (R) condition. The gel was stained overnight with Coomassie Blue. The purity of the protein is greater than 95%.
Immobilized Human GITR, His Tag (Cat. No. GIR-H5228) at 2 μg/mL (100 μl/well) can bind Human GITR Ligand, Fc Tag (Cat. No. GIL-H526a ) with a linear range of 1-16 ng/mL (QC tested).
- BackgroundTumor necrosis factor ligand superfamily member 18 (TNFSF18) is also known as Glucocorticoid - induced TNF-related ligand (GITRL or GITR Ligand), Activation - inducible TNF - related ligand (AITRL), which belongs to the tumor necrosis factor family. TNFSF18 is expressed at high levels in the small intestine, ovary, testis, kidney and endothelial cells. TNFSF18/ GITRL is up-regulated after stimulation by bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS). TNFSF18 Can function as costimulator and lower the threshold for T-cell activation and T-cell proliferation. TNFSF18 / GITR Ligand is important for interactions between activated T-lymphocytes and endothelial cells. TNFSF18 also mediates activation of NF-kappa-B.
