CARDIF, IPS-1, IPS1, VISA, Mitochondrial antiviral-signaling protein, MAVS, Putative NF-kappa-B-activating protein 031N, Virus-induced-signaling adapter, KIAA1271.
Mitochondrial antiviral signaling protein (MAVS) is vital for innate immune defense against viruses. MAVS is an intermediary protein essential in the virus-triggered IFN-beta signaling pathways. MAVS is involved in activation of transcription factors that regulate expression of IFN-beta and contributes to antiviral immunity.
MAVS Human Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 536 amino acids (1-513) and having a molecular mass of 55.9 kDa. MAVS is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
