IL-12 alpha, Rhesus Macaque (HEK293, Fc)

Interleukin-12 subunit alpha (IL-12A; IL-12p35), an immune-suppressive cytokine, encodes a subunit of the cytokine IL-12 that acts on T and natural killer cells, and has a broad array of biological activities. IL-12A heterodimerizes with IL-12B to form the IL-12 cytokine or with EBI3/IL27B to form the IL-35 cytokine[1][2]. IL-12 alpha Protein, Rhesus Macaque (HEK293, Fc) is produced in HEK293 cells with a C-Terminal Fc-tag . It consists of IL-12A (M1-S219).
