STRICTLY FOR FURTHER RESEARCH USE ONLY (RUO). MUST NOT TO BE USED IN DIAGNOSTIC OR THERAPEUTIC APPLICATIONS. |
Short Description: |
Recombinant-Human IL-18-No Tag protein was developed from hek293 and has a target region of No Tag. For use in research applications. |
Conjugation: |
Biotin |
Formulation: |
Lyophilised from 0.2 µm filtered PBS solution pH7.4. |
Dilution Range: |
Upon receipt centrifuge vial to ensure maximal product extraction, recommended: 20sec, 5K RPM |
Storage Instruction: |
The lyophilized protein is stable for at least 1 year from date of receipt at-20°C. |
Endotoxin: |
Endotoxin content was assayed using a LAL gel clot method. Endotoxin level was found to be less than 0.1 ng/µg (1EU/µg). |
Gene Symbol: |
IL18 |
Gene ID: |
3606 |
Uniprot ID: |
IL18_HUMAN |
Immunogen Region: |
Tyr37-Asp193 |
Immunogen: |
DNA sequence encoding Human IL-18 (Primary Amine Labeling) including a No Tag tag was expressed in HEK293 Cells. The recombinant protein was then biotinylated site specific using the AVItag biotinylation technology. |
Function | Pro-inflammatory cytokine primarily involved in epithelial barrier repair, polarized T-helper 1 (Th1) cell and natural killer (NK) cell immune responses. Upon binding to IL18R1 and IL18RAP, forms a signaling ternary complex which activates NF-kappa-B, triggering synthesis of inflammatory mediators. Synergizes with IL12/interleukin-12 to induce IFNG synthesis from T-helper 1 (Th1) cells and natural killer (NK) cells. Involved in transduction of inflammation downstream of pyroptosis: its mature form is specifically released in the extracellular milieu by passing through the gasdermin-D (GSDMD) pore. |
