Product Overview
Tag | N/A |
Host Species | Human |
Synonym | Interleukin-13, NC30, ALRH, BHR1, P600, IL-13, MGC116786, MGC116788, MGC116789. |
Background | IL13 is an immunoregulatory cytokine expressed primarily by activated Th2 cells. IL-13 is involved in several stages of B-cell maturation and differentiation. It up-regulates CD23 and MHC class II expression, and promotes IgE isotype switching of B cells. This cytokine down-regulates macrophage activity, thereby inhibits the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines. This cytokine is found to be critical to the pathogenesis of allergen-induced asthma but operates through mechanisms independent of IgE and eosinophils. This gene, IL3, IL5, IL4, and CSF2 form a cytokine gene cluster on chromosome 5q, with this gene particularly close to IL4. |
Description | Interleukin-13 Variant Human Recombinant expressed in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 114a.a., with a substitution of Q for R at position 112 compared with the wild type IL-13, having a molecular weight of 12.5 kDa. The IL-13 Variant is purified by unique purification methods. |

Purity | >95% 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 ED50 was determined by the dose dependent prolifiration of TF-1 cells and was found to be 1,000,000 units/mg. This analog has also been shown to exhibit increased in vivo activity compared to wild type IL-13. |
Formulation | Lyophilized from a 0.2µm filtered concentrated solution in 1xPBS, pH 7.2, containing 5% trehalose. |
Stability | Recombinant protein is stable for 12 months at -70°C |
Usage | For Research Use Only |
Storage | Lyophilized Interleukin-13 Variant although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution IL13 Variant 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. |
