ActoFactor™ Recombinant Human Interleukin 19

CSC-CTK0266

IL-19 is a cytokine that belongs to the IL10 cytokine subfamily. IL-19 is found to be preferentially expressed in monocytes. It can bind the IL-20 receptor complex and lead to the activation of the signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3). A similar cytokine in mouse is reported to up-regulate the expression of IL6 and TNF-alpha and induce apoptosis, which suggests a role of this cytokine in inflammatory responses. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the distinct isoforms have been described. Interleukin-19 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 155 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 17913 Dalton.

Human

Human IL19 expressed in E.coli

17.9 kDa

CAT# CSC-CTK0266-10 (10 μg); CAT# CSC-CTK0266-50 (50 μg)

E.coli

Greater than 99% as determined by SDS-PAGE and RP-HPLC analysis.

The activity is determined by its ability to activate STAT following receptor-ligand interaction.

Less than 1 EU/μg.

Lyophilized steril-filtered protein from a concentrated (1mg/ml) solution in water containing 10mM sodium citrate pH-5.

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-19 should be used immediately or stored long-term in undiluted working aliquots at -20°C. For long-term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
