Flagellin (TLR5 Mutant) (rec.)

The native flagellin [FliC] from Salmonella enterica Serovar Typhimurium strain ATCC14028 (aa 1-495) contains a substitution of amino acids 90-97 required for TLR5 signaling by a motif from a non-signaling flagellin and is fused at the N-terminus to a His-tag. Lyophilized. Contains PBS. Flagellin is the subunit protein which polymerizes to form the filaments of bacterial flagella. It activates the innate immune system through the receptor Toll-like Receptor 5 (TLR5) or the intracellular NLRC4 protein. The Flagellin (TLR5 Mutant)(rec.) cannot be detected by human and mouse TLR5. It has not been tested on NLRC4.
