Product Description
Selective agonist of Toll-like receptor 1 (TLR1) complexed with TLR2. Cell permeable, water soluble synthetic cationic lipohexapeptide analog of the immunologically active N-terminal portion of bacterial lipoprotein that potently activates monocytes and macrophages. Activates/represses an array of at least 140 genes partly involved in signal transduction and regulation of the immune response.
