human TRAIL/Apo2L, soluble protein Human 50 µg
Description / human TRAIL/Apo2L, soluble protein
TRAIL/Apo2L is a cytotoxic protein, which activates rapid apoptosis in tumor cells, but not in normal cells. TRAIL induced apoptosis is achieved through binding to two death-signaling receptors, DR4 and DR5. These receptor types belong to the TNFR superfamily of transmembrane proteins and contain a cytoplasmic "death domain", which activates the cell's apoptotic response. Recombinant human soluble TRAIL/Apo2L is a 168 amino acid polypeptide (19.6 kDa), consisting of the TNF homologous portion of the extracellular domain of the full length TRAIL/Apo2L protein.
