Data sheet

Formulation

IL18BP protein solution (0.5mg/ml) containing Phosphate Buffered Saline (pH 7.4) and 10% glycerol.

Purity

Greater than 90.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE.

Description

IL18BP Human Recombinant produced in Sf9 Baculovirus cells is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 406 amino acids (31-194a.a) and having a molecular mass of 44.9kDa. (Molecular size on SDS-PAGE will appear at approximately 40-57kDa). I

Protein Background

Interleukin-18 Binding Protein (IL18BP) serves as an inhibitor of the proinflammatory cytokine, IL18. IL18BP binds IL18, inhibits the binding of IL18 to its receptor, and consequently inhibits IL18-induced IFN-gamma production, resulting in reduced T-help

Expression host

Sf9, Baculovirus cells.

Synonyms

Interleukin 18 Binding Protein, MC51L-53L-54L Homolog Gene Product, Tadekinig-Alfa, IL-18BP, Interleukin-18-Binding Protein, IL18BPa, Interleukin-18-binding protein, IL-18BP, Tadekinig-alfa.

Reagent Appearance

Sterile filtered colorless solution.

Stability

Store at 4°C if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks. Store, frozen at -20°C for longer periods of time. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles.
