Description
This gene encodes a member of the TNF (tumor necrosis factor) receptor superfamily. The encoded protein functions in signal transduction pathways that activate inflammatory and inhibitory T-cell immune response. It binds herpes simplex virus (HSV) viral envelope glycoprotein D (gD), mediating its entry into cells. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
Bio-activity
Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. When Recombinant Cynomolgus Monkey HVEM/TNFRSF14 Fc Chimera is coated at 2 μg/mL (100 μL/well), biotinylated recombinant mouse BTLA Fc Chimera binds with a typical ED50 of 150-750 ng/mL.
