Defined substructure of the Re mutant of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Endotoxin activity equal to Re LPS. Strong activator (<10ng/ml) of macrophages via toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4). Does not activate TLR2 or other TLRs as determined with splenocytes and macrophages from TLR4 deficient mice by IL-6 ELISA. Facilitates the structural analysis of its complexes with signaling receptors, such as TLR4/MD2 and CD14. Kdo2-Lipid A was used in a recent animal atherosclerosis model. Induces sphingolipid biosynthesis, which is essential for induction of autophagy. Storage and Stability: Short-term Storage: +4 degrees C Long-term Storage: +4 degrees C Stable for at least 2 years after receipt when stored at +4 degrees C.
Catalogue number: 044977
Size: 1mg
Form: Sterile, ready-to-use solution in pyrogen-free double distilled water.
Purity: Absence of detectable protein or DNA contaminants with agonistic TLR activity.
Alternative names: (3-Deoxy-D-manno-octulosonic acid)2-Lipid A
