• Tag:

  Tag-Free

• Type:

  Active Protein & In Stock Protein

• Source:

  E.Coli

• Field of Research:

  Immunology

• Relevance:

  Produced by activated macrophages, IL-1 stimulates thymocyte proliferation by inducing IL-2 release, B-cell maturation and proliferation, and fibroblast growth factor activity. IL-1 proteins are involved in the inflammatory response, being identified as endogenous pyrogens, and are reported to stimulate the release of prostaglandin and collagenase from synovial cells.

• Endotoxin:

  Less than 1.0 EU/μg as determined by LAL method.

• Purity:

  >96% as determined by SDS-PAGE.

• Activity:

  Yes

• Bioactivity:

  Fully biologically active when compared to standard. The ED50 as determined by a cell proliferation assay using murine D10S cells is less than 2 pg/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of > 5.0 x 108 IU/mg.

• Form:

  Lyophilized powder

• Buffer:

  Lyophilized from a 0.2 µm filtered solution in PBS, pH 7.4, with 5 % trehalose, 0.02 % Tween-20

• Reconstitution:

  We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Please reconstitute protein in deionized sterile water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL.We recommend to add 5-50% of glycerol (final concentration) and aliquot for long-term storage at -20°C/-80°C. Our default final concentration of glycerol is 50%. Customers could use it as reference.

• Function:

  Potent proinflammatory cytokine. Initially discovered as the major endogenous pyrogen, induces prostaglandin synthesis, neutrophil influx and activation, T-cell activation and cytokine production, B-cell activation and antibody production, and fibroblast proliferation and collagen production.

• Molecular Weight:

  17.5 kDa

• Storage Conditions:

  The shelf life is related to many factors, storage state, buffer ingredients, storage temperature and the stability of the protein itself. Generally, the shelf life of liquid form is 6 months at -20°C/-80°C. The shelf life of lyophilized form is 12 months at -20°C/-80°C.

• Protein Length:

  Full Length of Mature Protein
