Enterotoxin type A Protein, S. aureus (His)

Customer Review

Based on 1 Customer Validation

Enterotoxins (ETAs) trigger host immune system activation by binding to major histocompatibility complex class II and T-cell receptor (TCR) molecules. This interaction triggers a cascade of cell activation, cytokine production and migration, primarily mediated by Alphata T cells, affecting lung tissue and airways. Enterotoxin type A Protein, S. aureus (His) is the recombinant Staphylococcus aureus-derived Enterotoxin type A protein, expressed by E. coli , with N-6*His labeled tag.

Biological Activity

Description

Enterotoxins (ETAs) trigger host immune system activation by binding to major histocompatibility complex class II and T-cell receptor (TCR) molecules. This interaction triggers a cascade of cell activation, cytokine production and migration, primarily mediated by Alphata T cells, affecting lung tissue and airways. Enterotoxin type A Protein, S. aureus (His) is the recombinant Staphylococcus aureus-derived Enterotoxin type A protein, expressed by E. coli , with N-6*His labeled tag.

Background

Enterotoxin type A (ETA) is a staphylococcal enterotoxin that instigates host immune system activation by binding in its unprocessed form to major histocompatibility complex class II and T-cell receptor (TCR) molecules. This interaction sets off a cascade of events involving waves of cellular activation, cytokine production, and migration, primarily mediated by alphabeta T-cells, ultimately affecting lung tissue and airways. Additionally, ETA is implicated in the development of staphylococcal food poisoning syndrome, characterized by symptoms such as high fever, hypotension, diarrhea, shock, and, in severe cases, potential fatality.

Product Properties

Appearance

Lyophilized powder.

Formulation

Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of 50 mM Tris, 300 mM NaCl, 5% trehalose, 5% mannitol and 0.01% Tween 80, pH 7.4.
Note: For SPR assay, please replace the buffer. Primary amine components (e.g., Tris, imidazole) can affect protein-coupled chips.

Endotoxin Level

<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.

Reconstitution

It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH2O.

Storage & Stability

Stored at -20°C for 2 years from date of receipt. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.

Shipping
