Name :
Recombinant Human DR6/TNFRSF21 Protein (hFc Tag)
Biological Activity :
Background :
TNFRSF21 (death receptor-6, DR6) is an orphan TNF receptor superfamily member and belongs to a subgroup of receptors called death receptors. This type I transmembrane receptor possesses four extracellular cysteine-rich motifs and a cytoplasmic death domain. DR6 is an extensively posttranslationally modified transmembrane protein and that N- and O-glycosylations of amino acids in its extracellular part. DR6 interacts with the adaptor protein TRADD and mediates signal transduction through its death domain, and expression of DR6 in mammalian cells induces activation of both NF-kappaB and JNK and cell apoptosis. DR6 knockout mice have enhanced CD4+ T cell proliferation and Th2 cytokine production, suggested that DR6 serves as an important regulatory molecule in T-helper cell activation, and is involved in inflammation and immune regulation. DR6 is expressed ubiquitously with high expression in lymphoid organs, heart, brain and pancreas. Some tumor cells overexpress DR6, typically in conjunction with elevated anti-apoptosis molecules. DR6 may also be involved in tumor cell survival and immune evasion, which is subject to future investigations.
Biological Activity :
1. Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA.2. Immobilized recombinant human DR6-Fc (Cat:10175-H02H) at 10 μg/mL (100 μl/well) can bind biotinylated human APP-Fc (Cat:10703-H02H) with a linear range of 0.03-0.25 μg/mL.

Molecular Weight :
The recombinant human DR6/Fc is a disulfide-linked homodimeric protein. The reduced monomer consists of 547 amino acids and predicts a molecular mass of 60.3 kDa. By SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions, the apparent molecular mass of rhDR6/Fc monomer is approximately 95-100 kDa due to the glycosylation.
Purity :
> 95 % as determined by SDS-PAGE

Product Concentration :
Storage and Stability :
Samples are stable for up to twelve months from date of receipt at -20℃ to -80℃. Store it under sterile conditions at -20℃ to -80℃. It is recommended that the protein be aliquoted for optimal storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Endotoxin Level :
< 1.0 EU per μg of the protein as determined by the LAL method
Protein Construction :
A DNA sequence encoding the extracellular domain (Met 1-Leu 350) of human DR6 (NP_055267.1) precursor was expressed with the fused Fc region of human IgG1 at the C-terminus.
Buffer Solution :
Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4.Please contact us for any concerns or special requirements. Normally 5 % – 8 % trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween80 are added as protectants before lyophilization. Please refer to the specific buffer information in the hardcopy of datasheet.
Shipping :
In general, recombinant proteins are provided as lyophilized powder which are shipped at ambient temperature.Bulk packages of recombinant proteins are provided as frozen liquid. They are shipped out with blue ice unless customers require otherwise.
Redissolution :
A hardcopy of datasheet with reconstitution instructions is sent along with the products. Please refer to it for detailed information.
