Human recombinant IL-37 (Interleukin-37) protein, AF

Interleukin-37 (IL-37) consists of 192 amino acids. IL-37 is a member of the interleukin-1 cytokine family. The primary function is binding to the interleukin-18 receptor (IL18R1 /IL-1Rrp) and then becoming a subunit to inhibit the activity of IL-18. This behavior often occurs between various immune responses. It also significantly affects the negative regulation of tumor necrosis factor production.

Applications

Cell Culture

Purification

>95% as determined by SDS-PAGE.

Endotoxin

<0.1 EU per 1 μg of the protein by the LAL method.

Bioactivity

Measure by its ability to induce IL-8 secretion in human PBMCs. The ED50 for this effect is <0.9 μg/mL.

Form

The protein was lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution containing 1X PBS, pH 8.0. If you have any concerns or special requirements, please confirm with us.

Reconstitution

Centrifuge at 3000 rpm for 5 mins before opening. It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized protein in sterile H2O to a concentration not less than 100 μg/mL and incubate the stock solution at room temperature for at least 20 mins to ensure sufficient re-dissolved. Do Not Vortex! Vigorous shaking may impair the biological activity of the protein.

Molecular Weight

The protein has a calculated MW of 19.49 kDa. The protein migrates as 22 kDa under reducing condition (SDS-PAGE analysis) .

Storage Conditions

Lyophilized protein should be stored at -20°C for 1 year. Upon reconstitution, store at 2°C to 8°C for up to 1 week. Further dilute in a buffer containing a carrier protein or stabilizer (e.g. 0.1% BSA, 10%FBS, 5%HSA or 5% trehalose solution), protein aliquots should be stored at -20°C or -80°C for 3-6 months. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
