Product Details
- Molecular Aliases
- CD258; TNFSF14; HVEM-L; LIGHT; LTg; TR2
- Protein Length
- Asp74-Val240
- Expression System
- HEK293
- Theoretical Molecular Weight
- The protein has a predicted MW of 45.5 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 53-60 kDa based on Bis-Tris PAGE result.
- Purity
- > 95% as determined by Bis-Tris PAGE
- Endotoxin
- Less than 1 EU per ug by the LAL method.
- Buffer / Formulation
- Lyophilized from 0.22μm filtered solution in PBS (pH 7.4). Normally 8% trehalose is added as protectant before lyophilization.
- State
- Lyophilized
- Storage Conditions
- -20 to -80°C for 12 months as supplied from date of receipt. -80°C for 3 months after reconstitution. Recommend to aliquot the protein into smaller quantities for optimal storage. Please minimize freeze-thaw cycles.
- Reconstitution Advice
- Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water. Please refer to the Certificate of Analysis for detailed instructions.

Background
LIGHT, also known as tumor necrosis factor superfamily member 14 (TNFSF14), is a secreted protein of the TNF superfamily. It is recognized by herpesvirus entry mediator (HVEM), as well as decoy receptor 3. This protein has been shown to stimulate the proliferation of T cells, and trigger apoptosis of various tumor cells.
