Toll-like receptor 4 Adenovirus
Toll-like receptors (TLR) are fundamental for pathogen recognition and initiation of the innate immune response. TLRs recognize pathogen contours and mediate the production of cytokines necessary for immunity toward the pathogen. There is a high level of conservation in TLRs, both structurally and functionally, from Drosophila to humans. The TLR family of proteins is characterized by a highly conserved Toll homology (TH) domain, which is essential for Toll-induced signal transduction. Another TLR protein, RP105, is predominately expressed on mature B-cells and has a striking similarity to TLR4.

Description (Vector)
Cooperates with LY96 and CD14 to mediate the innate immune response to bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Acts via MYD88, TIRAP and TRAF6, leading to NF-kappa-B activation, cytokine secretion and the inflammatory response. Also involved in LPS-independent inflammatory responses triggered by Ni(2+). These responses require non-conserved histidines and are, therefore, species-specific.

About Storage Conditions
All our viral products should be kept at -80°C. At this temperature, the virus will remain stable for 6-12 months (and in some cases, up to 2 years). Once thawed, the product can be stored at 4°C for 2-3 weeks without significant loss of biological activity.
We recommend aliquoting your vectors into low protein binding tubes upon receipt. This helps avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles, as well as prevent loss of virus. To maintain accurate titer, aliquot in at least 20ul per tube.
