Recombinant Human Lymphotactin/XCL1 protein

Recombinant Human Lymphotactin/XCL1 protein

• Background: Chemokine (C motif) ligand (XCL1), as known as lymphotactin, is the only known member of the C-chemokine family and signals through the receptor XCR1, formally known as GPR5. The expression of lymphotactin is abundant in some activated T cells such as activated CD8+ T cells and other class I MHC restricted T cells. It is found in high levels in spleen, thymus, intestine and peripheral blood leukocytes, and at lower levels in lung, prostate gland and ovary. XCL1 induces its chemotactic function by binding to a chemokine receptor called XCR1. Recombinant Human XCL1 which is a single non-glycosylated polypeptide chains containing 92 amino acids and it shares approximately 60 % amino acid sequence homology with the Mouse and rat protein.

• Reconstitution: Lyophilized from a .2 μm filtered concentrated solution in PBS, pH 7.4.
• Molecular Weight: Approximately 1.2 kDa, a single non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 92 amino acids.
