Research AreasCell Biology

Function

(Microbial infection) Promotes entry, likely through an enhanced virus-cell fusion process, of various viruses including HIV-1, West Nile virus, dengue virus and Zika virus. In contrast, the paramyxovirus PIV5, which enters at the plasma membrane, does not require LY6E. Mechanistically, adopts a microtubule-like organization upon viral infection and enhances viral uncoating after endosomal escape.

Biological Context

Subcellular Location: Cell membrane (Lipid-anchor, GPI-anchor)
Tissue Specificity: Widely expressed, predominantly in liver, kidney, ovary, spleen and peripheral blood Leukocytes

Product Specifications

Recombinant Human Lymphocyte antigen 6E (LY6E) (Active) is a recombinant protein from Homo sapiens (Human), expressed in Mammalian cell, covering amino acids 21-101aa, with N-terminal hFc-tagged tag, molecular weight 34.6kDa, purity Greater than 95% as determined by SDS-PAGE.. Suitable for ELISA and Western Blot applications.

SDS-PAGE: Single band at expected molecular weight confirming purity.

ELISA: Suitable as coating antigen or detection standard.

Western Blot: Compatible with standard Western Blot protocols.
