Formulation |
The IL34 was lyophilized from a solution containing 20mM Sodium Citrate, pH 3.0 and 75mM NaCl. |
Solubility |
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Interleukin-34 in sterile 18M-cm H2O containing 0.1% endotoxin-free recombinant HSA. |
Purity |
Greater than 95.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE. |
Description |
Interleukin 34 Human Recombinant produced in HEK cells is a glycosylated homodimer, containing 460 amino acids and having a total molecular weight of 52.5kDa.The IL34 protein is fused to a His-tag at C-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. |
Protein Background |
Interleukin 34 (IL34) is a cytokine that promotes the differentiation and viability of monocytes and macrophages through the colony-stimulating factor-1 receptor and is a part of a group of cytokines called interleukins. IL34 increases growth or survival of immune cells known as monocytes. IL34 protein obtains its activity by binding the Colony stimulating factor 1 receptor. Interleukin 34 has also a potential part in viral infection, the adaptive immune response and bone marrow cell proliferation. Furthermore, IL34 plays an important role in innate immunity and in inflammatory processes. |
Expression host |
HEK. |
Synonyms |
Interleukin 34, C16orf77, MGC34647, IL34. |
Stability |
Lyophilized IL34 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution Interleukin 34 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. |
