Recombinant Human Tumor Necrosis Factor Receptor II/TNFRSF1B/CD120b Protein(C-Fc)

Tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 1B (TNFRSF1B) is a member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily. Human TNF RII contains four cysteinerich repeats in its ECD, which shares 58% and 56% amino acid sequence identity with the mouse and rat orthologs, respectively.TNF RII is expressed predominantly on cells of the hematopoietic lineage, such as T and natural killer cells, as well as on endothelial cells, microglia, astrocytes,neurons, oligodendrocytes, cardiac myocytes, thymocytes, and mesenchymal stem cells.TNF RII binds to the membranebound forms of TNFα and Lymphotoxinα/TNFβ?soluble TNF is thought to signal predominately through TNF RI.Soluble TNF RII is believed to inhibit TNF biological activity by binding TNF thereby preventing it from activating membrane TNF receptors.
