ABSTRACT: LTβR is a member of the TNF receptor family of proteins. It binds to two different cell surface ligands, LIGHT, a homotypic trimer, and LTR1β2, a heterotypic trimer. We have measured the affinities of the dimeric IgG fusion protein, LTβRIgG, and monomeric LTβR protein binding to both LIGHT and LTR1β2 using surface plasmon resonance and found values of
