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.
Bio-activity
Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. When Recombinant Mouse HVEM/TNFRSF14 Fc Chimera is immobilized at 0.5 μg/mL, 100 μL/well, the concentration of Recombinant Human BTLA Fc Chimera that produces 50% of the optimal binding response is 15-90 ng/mL.
Storage
Use a manual defrost freezer and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
12 months from date of receipt, -20 to -70 centigrade as supplied.
1 month, 2 to 8 centigrade under sterile conditions after reconstitution.
3 months, -20 to -70 centigrade under sterile conditions after reconstitution.
