Mouse IFN alpha 4 Recombinant Protein Carrier-Free

Also known as: Interferon-alpha 4, IFN-a4, IFNa4

RUO: For Research Use Only
 
Contents: Mouse IFN alpha 4 Recombinant Protein Carrier-Free
Catalog Number: 34-8313
Formulation: Sterile liquid; 20 mM Tris-HCl, 0.15 M NaCl, pH 7.5, 0.22 μM filtered.
Storage Conditions: Store at less than or equal to -70°C.
Handling Conditions: For best recovery, quick-spin vial prior to opening. Use in sterile envrioment.
Source: E. coli expressed amino acids Cys25-Glu186 of mature mouse IFNa4 (accession # NM_010504).
Molecular Mass: The protein has a predicted molecular mass of 21,535 daltons. The DTT reduced and non-reduced proteins migrate as a 20 kDa polypeptide on SDS-PAGE.
Purity: Greater than 98% as determined by SDS-PAGE
Endotoxin Level: Less than 0.01 ng/ug cytokine as determined by the LAL assay.
Bioactivity: The recombinant mouse IFN-α4 has been tested for inhibition of the cytopathic effect of EMC virus on L929 cells. The ED50 for this effect is typically 40 pg/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of 2 x 107 U/mg.

Test Sizes: To accommodate multicolor flow cytometry, eBioscience is in the process of reducing test size volumes from 20 µl to 5 µl. Please check your antibody vial for the recommended test size.
Fluorochrome Replacements: eBioscience is in the process of replacing all Alexa FluorŪ 647 conjugated products with eFluorŪ 660 conjugated products.
 
Description
IFN-α4 is a type I interferon, previously known as B-cell interferon, leukocyte interferon, lymphoblast interferon, and pH2-stable interferon. IFN-α4 is one of at least 23 different known variants of IFN-α. The individual proteins have molecular masses between 19-26 kDa and consist of proteins with lengths of 156-166 and 172 amino acids. IFN-α forms are produced by monocytes/macrophages, lymphoblastoid cells, fibroblasts, and a number of different cell types following induction by viruses, nucleic acids, glucocorticoid hormones, and low-molecular weight substances (n-butyrate, 5-bromodeoxyuridine). IFN-α4 demonstrates antiviral, antiparasitic,and antiproliferative activities.
Applications Reported
For research use only, not for diagnostic or therapeutic use. The recombinant mouse IFNa4 has been reported useful for bioassay and ELISA.
Applications Tested
The recombinant mouse IFN-α4 has been tested for inhibition of the cytopathic effect of EMC virus on L929 cells. The ED50 for this effect is typically 40 pg/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of 2 x 107 U/mg.
