IL12 Human, CHO

Source: CHO Cells.Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.interleukin 12 subunit beta/alpha or IL12b/IL12a is a growth factor cytokine which increases the lytic activity of NK/lymphokine-activated killer cells, activated T and NK cells and prompt IFN-gamma production (through resting PBMC) . IL12b/IL12a is an essential part to the process of cellular-immunity and activates the differentiation of Th1 cells originates from the precursor T helper cells. The protein is linked to IL23A and creates the IL-23 interleukin, by that, the autoimmune inflammation is induced and autoimmune inflammatory diseases and tumorigenesis are being affected.Interleukin 12 Human Recombinant is a glycosylated heterodimer containing 503 amino acids (306 amino acid rHuIL-12 p40 and the 197 amino acid rHuIL-12 p35 subunits) and having a molecular mass of 60kDa. IL12 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Applications

Functional Assay

Purification

Greater than 97.0% as determined by analysis by SDS-PAGE.

Components

Lyophilized from a 0.2μm filtered concentrated solution in PBS, pH 7.2.It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Interleukin 12 in sterile 18M Omega -cm H2O not less than 100μg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.

Storage Conditions

Lyophilized Interleukin 12 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution PDGF BB should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C. Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.

Applications Notes

Determined by cell proliferation assay using PHA-stimulated human T lymphoblasts. The ED50 for this effect is 0.01-0.05 ng/mL corresponding to a specific activity of 1.1 ƒâ€” 104 units/μg, which is calibrated against rHuIL-12 WHO Standard.

Amino Acids

IL-12 is a heterodimer of IL-12A and IL-12B linked through a disulfide-bond: >IL-12 ARNLPVATP DPGMFPCLHH SQNLLRAVSN MLQKARQTLE FYPCTSEEID HEDITKDKTS TVEACLPLEL TKNESCLNSR ETSFITNGSC LASRKTSFMM ALCLSSIYED LKMYQVEFKT MNAKLLMDPK RQIFLDQNML AVIDELMQAL NFNSETVPQK SSLEEPDFYK TKIKLCILLH AFRIRAVTID RVMSYLNAS. >IL-12B IWELKKDV YVVELDWYPD APGEMVVLTC DTPEEDGITW TLDQSSEVLG SGKTLTIQVK EFGDAGQYTC HKGGEVLSHS LLLLHKKEDG IWSTDILKDQ KEPKNKTFLR CEAKNYSGRF TCWWLTTIST DLTFSVKSSR GSSDPQGVTC GAATLSAERV RGDNKEYEYS VECQEDSACP AAEESLPIEV MVDAVHKLKY ENYTSSFFIR DIIKPDPPKN LQLKPLKNSR QVEVSWEYPD TWSTPHSYFS LTFCVQVQGK SKREKKDRVF TDKTSATVIC RKNASISVRA QDRYYSSSWS EWASVPCS.
