EDA2R also known as Tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 27 isoform 2, is a transmembrane protein in the TNF receptor superfamily. This protein itself is strongly associated with androgenetic alopecia (male hair loss). It is widely expressed, notably in embryonic basal epidermal cells and maturing hair follicles. Even though it does not contain a cytoplasmic death domain, it can associate with Fas and induce EDA-A2 dependent apoptosis. Recombinant human EDA2R protein, fused to His-tag at C-terminus, was expressed in insect cell and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques.
