IL-12 Recombinant Protein
Product Specifications
Background
IL-12 is a disulfide-linked heterodimeric protein (p70), composed of two subunits, p35 and p40, which are encoded by two different genes. Accumulating data indicate that p40 secretion precedes that of IL-12 expression. In addition, to its ability to covalently bind to p35 to form IL-12, p40 can bind to p19 to form IL-23, or can form a homodimer designated as IL-12 p80. Elevated levels of IL-12 p80 are correlated with macrophage recruitment and increased inflammation in asthma and respiratory viral infection models. Recombinant human IL-12 p80 is an 80.0 kDa disulfide linked homodimer consisting of two p40 chains of IL-12.

Storage Conditions
The lyophilized IL-12 recombinant protein is stable for at least 2 years from date of receipt at -20˚ C. Reconstituted IL-12 is stable for at least 3 months when stored in working aliquots with a carrier protein at -20˚ C. As with any protein, exposing IL-12 recombinant protein to repeated freeze / thaw cycles is not recommended. When working with proteins care should be taken to keep recombinant protein at a cool and stable temperature.
