Gene Information

human ... FASLG(356)

Packaging

5 μg

Application

ED50 = 1 ng/ml on A20 cells. Does not require any enhancer, as the modified linker sequence already facilitates the formation of active FasL complexes. rhsSuperFasL recognizes its receptor Fas (CD95) of the following species: human, rat, mouse.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Fas ligand has also been shown to be involved in the activation of non-apoptotic pathways including proliferation and NF-κ B activation.
Fas ligand, a protein belonging to the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) family of cytokines, induces apoptosis in cells expressing the cell membrane receptor Fas (CD95/Apo-1).
