| Formulation |
The protein was lyophilized from 0.5xPBS, pH 7.5. |
| Solubility |
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized murine IL12 in sterile distilled pyrogen free water at 100ug/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions. |
| Purity |
Greater than 95% as determined by SDS-PAGE. |
| Description |
Interleukin-12 Mouse Recombinant produced in Sf9 insect cells is a glycosylated disulfide linked heterodimeric polypeptide containing 506 amino acids and having a molecular weight of 75 kDa comprised of disulfide-bonded 35 kDa (p35) and 40 kDa (p40) subunits.The IL-12 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. |
| Protein Background |
IL-12 is a heterodimeric cytokine that stimulates the production of interferon gamma from T-cells and natural killer cells, and also induces differentiation of Th1 helper cells. It is an initiator of cell-mediated immunity. |
| Expression host |
HEK-293 Cells. |
| Synonyms |
NKSF, CTL maturation factor (TCMF), Cytotoxic lymphocyte maturation factor (CLMF), TSF, Edodekin-alpha, IL-12. |
| Reagent Appearance |
Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder. |
| Stability |
Lyophilized mouse IL-12 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored below -18°C. Upon reconstitution IL12 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 carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
