Recombinant Murine Interleukin 12a

• Cat.No.: Il12a-209M
• Product Overview: Recombinant murine IL-12-p40 is a 40.0 kDa protein containing 313 amino acid residues. It is expressed inCHO cells. MW=40kDa.

Specification

• Species: Mouse
• Source: CHO
• Tag: Non
• Description: Interleukin-12 is a disulfide-linked heterodimeric protein (p70), composed of two subunits, p35 and p40, which are encoded by two different genes. Accumulating data indicate that p40 secretion precedes that of IL-12 expression. In addition, to its ability to covalently bind to p35 to form IL-12, p40 can bind to p19 to form IL-23.
• Purity: Greater than 95% (determined by SDS-PAGE and HPLC analysis).
• Specific Activity: NA.
• Endotoxin Level: < 0.1 ng per µg of rMu IL-12-p40 (1EU/µg).
• Biological Activity: NA.
• Formulation: Lyophilized from a sterile-filtered solution with no additives.
• Reconstitution: Please Note: Always centrifuge product before opening vial. The lyophilized protein should be reconstituted with distilled, sterile water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/ml. For further dilution, carrier protein (0.1% BSA or HSA) should be added to avoid loss of bioactivity.
• Storage: The lyophilized protein, though stable at room temperature for up to 3 weeks, is best stored desiccated at -20°C. Reconstituted protein should be used immediately or stored long-term in undiluted working aliquots at -20°C. For long-term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
