ActoFactor™ Recombinant Human Interleukin 17B

CSC-CTK0260

IL-17B is a disulfide-linked homodimer of two 161 amino acid polypeptide chains. It belongs to the IL-17 family of structurally-related cytokines that share a highly conserved C-terminal region but differ from one another in their N-terminal regions and in their distinct biological roles. The six known members of this family, IL-17A through IL-17F, are secreted as homodimers. IL-17B is expressed by T-cells and has been shown to stimulate release of TNF-alpha and IL-1beta from cells of the monocyte lineage. Recombinant human IL-17B is a 36.6 kDa disulfide-linked homodimer of two 161 amino acid polypeptide chains.

Human

Human IL17B expressed in E.coli

36.6 kDa

CAT# CSC-CTK0260-10 (10 μg); CAT# CSC-CTK0260-50 (50 μg)

E.coli

Greater than 98% as determined by SDS-PAGE and HPLC analysis.

Determined by its ability to induce IL-8 in human PBMCs using a concentration range of 10-100 ng. Please note: Results may vary with PBMC donors.

Less than 1 EU/μg.

Lyophilized (freeze-dried), sterile powder. Lyophilized with no additives.

Please centrifuge product briefly before opening vial. The lyophilized protein should be reconstituted in sterile, ultra-pure water to a concentration of 0,1 - 1,0 mg/ml. This solution can then be diluted into other aqueous buffers and stored at -20°C for future use.

The lyophilized protein, though stable at room temperature for up to 3 weeks, is best stored desiccated at -20°C. Reconstituted rHu IL-17B should be used immediately or stored long-term in undiluted working aliquots at -20°C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
