Human IL1A Protein, hFc Tag

CAT#: TP724188

Human IL1A Protein, hFc Tag

Specifications

Product Data

• Expression Host: HEK293
• Tag: C-Human Fc
• Predicted MW: The protein has a predicted molecular mass of 44.2 kDa after removal of the signal peptide.The apparent molecular mass of IL1A-hFc is approximately 35-55 kDa due to glycosylation.
• Purity: The purity of the protein is greater than 90% as determined by SDS-PAGE and Coomassie blue staining.
• Reconstitution: Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4. Normally 5 % - 8% trehalose is added as protectants before lyophilization.
• Storage: Store at -20°C to -80°C for 12 months in lyophilized form. After reconstitution, if not intended for use within a month, aliquot and store at -80°C (Avoid repeated freezing and thawing). Lyophilized proteins are shipped at ambient temperature.
• Stability: 12 months from date of despatch

Reference Data

• Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the interleukin 1 cytokine family. This cytokine is a pleiotropic cytokine involved in various immune responses, inflammatory processes, and hematopoiesis. This cytokine is produced by monocytes and macrophages as a proprotein, which is proteolytically processed and released in response to cell injury, and thus induces apoptosis. This gene and eight other interleukin 1 family genes form a cytokine gene cluster on chromosome 2. It has been suggested that the polymorphism of these genes is associated with rheumatoid arthritis and Alzheimer's disease. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
