| Endotoxin Levels | Endotoxin level is less than 0.1 ng per ug (1 EU/ug). |
General Information
| Biological Significance | HVEM belongs to the TNF Receptor superfamily of transmembrane proteins and plays a role in the activation of T-cells and other lymphocytes. It is expressed in various cells and tissues including spleen, thymus, lung, macrophages, and T-cells. HVEM activation induces a signaling cascade which results in induction of transcription factors NF-kappaB and AP-1. LIGHT (TNFSF14) and TNF-beta (TNFSF1) function as the ligands for HVEM, which can also bind specifically to herpes simplex virus glycoprotein D. “Soluble HVEM, which tends to form disulfide-linked heterodimeric complexes in solution, can act as a “receptor decoy” resulting in inhibition of the activity of the HVEM ligands, LIGHT and TNF-ß.” |
