IL-23, Recombinant, Human

IL-23 is a proinflammatory heterodimeric protein composed of two subunits, a unique p19 subunit and a p40 subunit, which is shared with IL-12. IL-23 is secreted by activated dendritic cells and macrophages, and signals though a receptor comprised of IL-23R complexed with IL-12Rbeta2.IL-23 has been shown to enhance proliferation of memory T cells.It also stimulates the production of IFN-gamma in NK cells, induces IL-17 production, and drives Th17 mediated responses.Recombinant IL-23 is a 53.5kD heterodimeric protein consisting of two subunits, p19 (170 amino acids) and p40 (306 amino acids).*Manufactured using BTI-Tn-5B1-4 cells under license from the Boyce Thompson Institute for Plant Research, Inc.\n\nBiological Activity:\nMeasured by its ability to induce IL-17 secretion by mouse splenocytes.\n\nAA Sequence:\nRAVPGGSSPA WTQCQQLSQK LCTLAWSAHP LVGHMDLREE GDEETTNDVP HIQCGDGCDP QGLRDNSQFC LQRIHQGLIF YEKLLGSDIF TGEPSLLPDS PVGQLHASLL GLSQLLQPEG HHWETQQIPS LSPSQPWQRL LLRFKILRSL QAFVAVAARV FAHGAATLSP IWELKKDVYV VELDWYPDAP GEMVVLTCDT PEEDGITWTL DQSSEVLGSG KTLTIQVKEF GDAGQYTCHK GGEVLSHSLL LLHKKEDGIW STDILKDQKE PKNKTFLRCE AKNYSGRFTC WWLTTISTDL TFSVKSSRGS SDPQGVTCGA ATLSAERVRG DNKEYEYSVE CQEDSACPAA EESLPIEVMV DAVHKLKYEN YTSSFFIRDI IKPDPPKNLQ LKPLKNSRQV EVSWEYPDTW STPHSYFSLT FCVQVQGKSK REKKDRVFTD KTSATVICRK NASISVRAQD RYYSSSWSEW ASVPCS\n\nCrossreactivity:\nMouse\n\nQuality Control:\nVerified by N-terminal and Mass Spectrometry analyses (when applicable).\n\nEndotoxin:\n<0.1ng/ug of protein (<1EU/ug).\n\nProtein Content:\nVerified by UV Spectroscopy and/or SDS-PAGE gel.\n\nStorage and Stability:\nStore lyophilized products at -20 degrees C. For reconstituted solutions of most products, we recommend short-term storage at 4 degrees C. For longer term storage the protein solution should be stored with a carrier protein (eg. 0.1% BSA) in working aliquots and stored frozen at -20 degrees C. Additional freeze/thaw cycles may cause some denaturation of the protein.
