Product Overview
Tag | N/A |
Host Species | Human |
Synonym | IFN alpha 2b, IFNA, INFA2, MGC125764, MGC125765. |
Background | IFN-alpha is expressed by macrophages and has antiviral activities. IFN stimulates the production of two 56: protein kinase and an oligoadenylate synthetase. |
Description | IFN-a 2b Human Recombinant expressed in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 166a.a. and having a molecular weight of 19400 Dalton. The difference between IFNA2A and IFNA2B is in thea.a. present at position 23. IFN-alpha 2a has a lysine at that position 23 while IFN-alpha 2b has arginine.The IFN-alpha 2b gene was obtained from human leukocytes.The IFN-a 2b is purified by unique purification methods. |

Purity | >98.0% as determined by(a) Analysis by RP-HPLC.(b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE. |
Endotoxin | <1.0 EU per μg by the LAL method. |
Bioactivity | The specific activity as determined in a viral resistance assay using Bovine |
Formulation | Lyophilized from a (1 mg/ml) solution in containing 2.3 mg Sodium phosphate dibasic and 0.55 mg sodium phosphate monobasic buffer. |
Stability | Recombinant protein is stable for 12 months at -70°C |
Usage | For Research Use Only |
Storage | Lyophilized IFN although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution IFN alpha 2b should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C.For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
