Recombinant human TLR7 (451-500aa) purified from E. coli.
TLR7 is one of toll-like receptors which are type I transmembrane proteins involved in innate immunity by recognizing microbial conserved structures. These proteins are characterized by multiple copies of leucine rich repeats in the extracellular domain and IL-1 receptor motif in the cytoplasmic domain, and act through adaptor molecules such as MyD88 and TIRAP to activate various kinases and transcription factors. Human TLR7(hTLR7) is predominantly expressed in lung, placenta and spleen and hTLR7,8 genes are located on the sex chromosome X. hTLR7 may play an important role in detecting and combating viral infections. Applications: Suitable for use in ELISA and Western Blot. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Western Blot: 1:500-1:2000 Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Hybridoma: Derived from hybridization of mouse SP2/O myeloma cells with spleen cells from BALB/c mice immunized with a recombinant human TLR7 protein. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4C for short-term only. For long-term storage and to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, add sterile glycerol (40-50%), aliquot and store at -20C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months at -20C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
