Recombinant Full Length Human IL18 Protein, C-Flag-tagged

Cat.No. : IL18-1668HFL
Product Overview : Recombinant Full Length Human IL18 Protein, fused to Flag-tag at C-terminus, was expressed in Mammalian cells.
  • Specification
  • Gene Information

Description : The protein encoded by this gene is a proinflammatory cytokine of the IL-1 family that is constitutively found as a precursor within the cytoplasm of a variety of cells including macrophages and keratinocytes. The inactive IL-18 precursor is processed to its active form by caspase-1, and is capable of stimulating interferon gamma production, and of regulating both T helper (Th) 1 and Th2 responses. This cytokine has been implicated in the injury of different organs, and in potentially fatal conditions characterized by a cytokine storm. In humans, IL-18 gene is located on chromosome 11. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
