- Description: RAET1E (Retinoic Acid Early Transcript 1E), or ULBP4, is a member of the RAET1 family of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I-related genes. RAET1E and RAET1G differ from the other RAET1 proteins by having a type I membrane-spanning sequence at their C termini rather than glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchor sequences. RAET1E is a functional ligand for NKG2D, which causes lymphocyte activation resulting in the secretion of cytokines.
- Immunogen: Recombinant His-tagged protein to human extra-cellular domain of RAET1E, grown in E.coli
- Isotype: IgG2b
- Research area: Immunology
- For Research Use Only
