Alternate Names
activation-inducible TNFR family receptor; AITR; CD antigen CD357; CD357; GITR; GITR-D; glucocorticoid-induced TNFR-related protein; TNF receptor superfamily activation-inducible protein; tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 18
Description (eCommerce)
GITR/TNFRSF18 is a member of the TNF-receptor superfamily. It has been shown to have increased expression upon T-cell activation, and it is thought to play a key role in dominant immunological self-tolerance maintained by regulatory T cells. GITR/TNFRSF18 also plays a role in the regulation of CD3-driven T-cell activation and programmed cell death. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2011] [taken from NCBI Entrez Gene (Gene ID: 8784)].
Description (Vector)
TNFRSF18 encodes a member of the TNF-receptor superfamily. The encoded receptor has been shown to have increased expression upon T-cell activation, and it is thought to play a key role in dominant immunological self-tolerance maintained by CD25(+)CD4(+) regulatory T cells. Knockout studies in mice also suggest the role of this receptor is in the regulation of CD3-driven T-cell activation and programmed cell death. Three alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene encoding distinct isoforms have been reported.

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.
