Product Overview
Purified recombinant protein of Human B and T lymphocyte associated protein (BTLA), with C-terminal DDK/His tag, expressed in human cells.
Description
This gene encodes a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily. The encoded protein contains a single immunoglobulin (Ig) domain and is a receptor that relays inhibitory signals to suppress the immune response. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. Polymorphisms in this gene have been associated with an increased risk of rheumatoid arthritis. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]
