Biological Activity

Description

EsxA Protein, Mycobacterium tuberculosis (His, Myc) is the recombinant EsxA, expressed by E. coli , with N-10*His, C-Myc labeled tag.

Background

EsxA is a secreted protein that acts as a potent host T-cell antigen. It plays multiple roles in modulating the host's immune response to infection and is responsible for bacterial escape into the host cytoplasm.

Verified Bioactivity

Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. When Recombinant Mycobacterium tuberculosis EsxA is immobilized at 2.5 µg/mL(100 µL/well) can bind Anti-EsxB antibody. The ED50 for this effect is 468 ng/mL.

MCE Validation Data

  • Purity - SDS-PAGE

    Purity - SDS-PAGE

    ≥ 90%, as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE.
