Human recombinant IL-32 alpha (Interleukin-32 alpha) protein, AF

About this product

Interleukin 32 alpha (IL-32α) is an 18 kDa cytokine with 131 amino acid residues and one of the IL-2 splice variants. IL-32α is primarily secreted from inflammatory cells, such as NK cells, T-cells, peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), and monocytes. IL-32 alpha is a proinflammatory cytokine regulating IL-6 by interaction with protein kinase C (PKC) . It also interacts with paxillin, integrin, and focal adhesion kinase 1 (FAK 1) .

Applications

Cell Culture

Purification

>98% as determined by SDS-PAGE.

Endotoxin

<0.1 EU per 1 μg of the protein by the LAL method.

Bioactivity

Measure by its ability to induce TNF alpha secretion in RAW264.7 cells. The ED50 for this effect is <10 μg/mL.

Form

The protein was lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution containing 1X PBS, pH 8.0. If you have any concerns or special requirements, please confirm with us.

Reconstitution

Centrifuge at 3000 rpm for 5 mins before opening. It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized protein in sterile H2O to a concentration not less than 100 μg/mL and incubate the stock solution at room temperature for at least 20 mins to ensure sufficient re-dissolved. Do Not Vortex! Vigorous shaking may impair the biological activity of the protein.

Molecular Weight

The protein has a calculated MW of 15.72 kDa. The protein migrates as 18 kDa under reducing condition (SDS-PAGE analysis) .

Storage Conditions

Lyophilized protein should be stored at -20°C for 1 year. Upon reconstitution, store at 2°C to 8°C for up to 1 week. Further dilute in a buffer containing a carrier protein or stabilizer (e.g. 0.1% BSA, 10%FBS, 5%HSA or 5% trehalose solution), protein aliquots should be stored at -20°C or -80°C for 3-6 months. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
