Cat. No. : |
IL12A-112H |
Description : |
Human interleukin 12 (IL-12, IL12) is a pro-inflammatory cytokine that consists of a heterodimer comprising two disulfide-linked subunits, the alpha chain (the p35 subunit, IL-12A) and the beta chain (the p40 subunit, IL-12B). |

Molecular Mass : |
IL-12A is a disulfide-linked heterodimeric glycoprotein, consisting of an alpha and beta chain.IL-12A migrates as multiple bands between 30 and 45 kDa in SDS-PAGE due to post-translational modifications, in particular glycosylation. The IL-12A alpha chain migrates as bands between 30 and 35 kDa. This compares with the unmodified IL-12 alpha chain that has a predicted molecular mass of 22.5 kDa. The IL-12A beta chain migrates as bands between 35 and 45 kDa. This compares with the unmodified IL-12 beta chain that has a predicted molecular mass of 34.7 kDa. |
PI : |
IL-12 separates into a number of isoforms with a pI between 3.5 and 9.5 in 2D PAGE due to post-translational modifications, in particular glycosylation. IL-12 alpha chain separates into multiple isoforms with a pI between 3.5 and 9.5. This compares with the unmodified IL-12 alpha chain that has a predicted pI of 6.1. The Symansis IL-12 beta chain separates into multiple isoforms with a pI between 5.0 and 9.0. This compares with the unmodified IL-12 beta chain that has a predicted pI of 5.4. |
% Carbohydrate : |
Purified IL-12 alpha chain consists of 15-35% carbohydrate by weight. purified IL-12 beta chain consists of 0-25% carbohydrate by weight. |
Glycosylation : |
IL-12 has N- and O-glycosylation. |
Purity : |
>95%, as determined by SDS-PAGE and visualized by silver stain. |
Formulation : |
When reconstituted in 0.5 ml sterile phosphate-buffered saline, the solution will contain 1% human serum albumin (HSA) and 10% trehalose. |
Reconstitution : |
It is recommended that 0.5 ml of sterile phosphate-buffered saline be added to the vial. |
Storage : |
Lyophilized products should be stored at 2 to 8°C. Following reconstitution short-term storage at 4°C is recommended, and longer-term storage of aliquots at -18 to -20°C. Repeated freeze thawing is not recommended. |
