Interleukin-29 Human Recombinant, HEK ( IL 29 Human, HEK )

Data sheet

Formulation

The IL29 was lyophilized from 1mg/ml in 1xPBS.

Solubility

It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized IL-29 in sterile water not less than 100ug/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.

Purity

Greater than 95% as obsereved by SDS-PAGE.

Description

IL-29 Human Recombinant produced in HEK cells is a glycosylated monomer, having a molecular weight range of 29-35kDa due to glycosylation.The IL-29 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Protein Background

IL-29 is distantly related to type I interferons and the IL-10 family. Expression of IL-29 is induced by viral infection which interacts with a heterodimeric class II cytokine receptor that consists of interleukin 10 receptor, beta (IL10RB) and interleuki

Expression host

HEK.

Synonyms

Interleukin-29, IL-29, IFN-Lambda 1, Interferon-Lambda 1, Cytokine ZCYTO21, IL29, IFNL1, ZCYTO21.

Stability

Lyophilized IL-29 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution IL29 should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C.For long term storage it is recommended to add a c

Physical Appearence

Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.

Biological Activity

The specific activity was determined by the dose dependent protection of the cytopathic effect on A549 cells (human lung adenocarcinoma epithelial cell line) that were challenged with encephalomyocarditis (EMC) virus and is typically 0.5-5ng/ml.
