Recombinant flagellin from S. typhimurium

RecFLA-ST is a recombinant flagellin protein encoded by the fliC gene from the Gram-negative bacteria Salmonella typhimurium.

This protein is produced in CHO cells and purified by affinity chromatography.

RecFLA-ST is intended for use in cell culture applications.

Description

Flagellin is the major component of the bacterial flagellar filament, which confers motility on a wide range of bacterial species. This proinflammatory molecule is present in both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. It is recognized by distinct types of pattern recognition receptors (PRRs).
Extracellular flagellin is recognized by surface localized Toll-like receptor 5 (TLR5), which promotes the activation of NF-κB and the subsequent production of cytokines [1, 2]. Flagellin is also recognized by the cytosolic NOD-like receptors (NLRs) NAIP5/NAIP6 sensors of the NLRC4 inflammasome [3, 4]. Flagellin monomers are translocated into the host cell cytosol by a mechanism that requires bacterial secretion systems. This triggers the formation of a NAIP-NLRC4 inflammasome leading to caspase-1-mediated secretion of IL-1β and IL-18 [3, 4].
