IL-5 Receptor α
IL-5R alpha is a type I cytokine receptor consisting of two distinct polypeptide chains, alpha and beta. alpha chain is a membrane-penetrating glycoprotein that specifically binds IL-5 and beta chain converts low affinity IL-5R to high affinity IL-5R, forming a heterodimeric receptor complex[1].IL-5R alpha can induce the activation of multiple intracellular signalling pathways, including JAK/STAT, RAF/MAP, Ras-Raf-ERK and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase when its binds with IL-5[2].IL-5R alpha is expressed on eosinophils, basophils and B cells and affects cell survival, apoptosis, differentiation and chemotaxis[3].

The EpCAM/TROP1 protein serves as an important homogeneous interacting molecule that promotes direct contact between intestinal epithelial cells (IEC) and intraepithelial lymphocytes (IEL) in the mucosal epithelium. This feature helps establish an immune barrier against mucosal infections. EpCAM/TROP1 Protein, Human (His-SUMO) is the recombinant human-derived EpCAM/TROP1 protein, expressed by E. coli , with N-6*His, N-SUMO labeled tag.
