Sequence Info : Partial
Tag Info : N-terminal 6xHis-tagged
Theoretical MW : 38.3 kDa
Storage Buffer : Tris/PBS-based buffer, 5%-50% glycerol. If the delivery form is lyophilized powder, the buffer before lyophilization is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 6% Trehalose, pH 8.0.
Endotoxin Level : Not tested-
Biological Activity : Not tested
Storage : Short term: -20°C; Long term: -80°C. Minimize freeze and thaw cycles.
Research Area : Others
Restriction : For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures, drug use, or for administration to humans or animals.
Relevance : Virulence factor that plays an important role in immune evasion. Lyses human lymphocytes and monocytes. Binds to the LFA-1 integrin on the surface of the host cell and to cholesterol-containing membranes, which probably results in large LtxA-LFA-1 clusters in lipid rafts. Shows also beta-hemolytic activity on certain types of growth media.
