特徴

• A soluble factor produced by monocytes, macrophages, and other cells which activates T-lymphocytes and potentiates their response to mitogens or antigens. IL-1 consists of two distinct forms, IL-1 alpha and IL-1 beta which perform the same functions but are distinct proteins. The synthesis of IL-1 can be induced by other cytokines including TNF-alpha , IFN-alpha , IFN-beta and IFN-g and also by bacterial endotoxins , viruses, mitogens, and antigens. In human skin fibroblasts IL1-alpha and TNF-alpha induce the synthesis of IL1-beta . In pheochromocytoma cells, NGF induces the synthesis of IL1.
• Description:Recombinant Porice IL-1 alpha produced in E.Coli is single, a non-glycosylated, Polypeptide chain containing 158 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 18076 Dalton. Porcine IL-1a is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
• Amino Acid Sequence:The sequence of the first five N-terminal amino acids was determined and was found to be Ser-Ala-Thr-Tyr-Ser.
• Dimers and Aggregates:Less than 1% as determined by silver-stained SDS-PAGE gel analysis.
• Biological Activity:IL-1a is fully biologically active when compared to standard. The ED50 as determined by the dose-dependent stimulation of D10S cells is < 0.03 ng/ml.
• Endotoxin:≤ 0.1ng/ug (IEU/ug) of IL-1alpha.
• Protein Content:Protein quantitation was carried out by two independent methods:1. UV spectroscopy at 280 nm using the absorbency value of 0.669 as the extinction coefficient for a 0.1% (1mg/ml) solution. This value is calculated by the PC GENE computer analysis program of protein sequences (IntelliGenetics). 2. Analysis by RP-HPLC, using a standard solution of IL-1a as a Reference Standard.
• Gene:Name: IL1A
• Solubility:It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Porcine IL-1 alpha in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
• Stability:Lyophilized Porcine IL-1a although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -180C. Upon reconstitution Recombinant Porcine IL-1alpha should be stored at 40C between 2-7 days and for future use below -180C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Please avoid freeze-thaw cycles.
