25x Biotin-detection (human sHVEM Biotin-dAb). PN: B113379B. One vial containing 100 µL of biotinylated anti-human sHVEM.

Lyophilized Standard Mix-Human Group 9 Panel B, 9-Plex. PN: HG9009B. One vial containing lyophilized recombinant human sCEACAM-1, sALCAM, sSLAMF4, sHVEM, sB7-DC, sB7-H1, sEpCAM, sBLAME and sEPOR.  Note: If multiple analyte kits on the above target list are ordered as a panel, only one vial of standard mix is supplied for those analyte kits.

Application: Optimal antibody pair and antigen standard for assaying human Human TNFRSF14/sCD270/HVEM. Can be multiplexed with other analytes in Human Group 9.  To be used in conjunction with the AimPlex NR Basic Kit (PN: P100001) and a diluent kit. Refer to the AimPlex Multiplex Immunoassay User Manual and kit inserts for the assay procedure.

Storage:  2-8 C in the dark.

Important: Sodium azide forms explosive compounds with heavy metals. These products contain <0.05% (w/w) azide which with repeated contact with lead and copper commonly found in plumbing drains may result in the buildup of shock sensitive compounds. Dispose in accordance with regulations from your institute.

Description:

TNFRSF14 (Tumor Necrosis Factor Receptor SuperFamily member 14), also known as Herpesvirus entry mediator (HVEM) and CD270, is a human cell surface receptor of the TNF-receptor superfamily. It is also referred to as ATAR (another TRAF-associated receptor). This receptor was identified as a cellular mediator of herpes simplex virus (HSV) entry. Binding of HSV viral envelope glycoprotein D (gD) to this receptor protein has been shown to be part of the viral entry mechanism. The cytoplasmic region of this receptor was found to bind to several TRAF family members, which may mediate the signal transduction pathways that activate the immune response. In melanocytic cells TNFRSF14 gene expression may be regulated by MITF. Mutations in this gene have been recurrently been associated to cases of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Diseases associated with TNFRSF14 include herpes simplex and follicular lymphoma.
