| Immunogen: |
Recombinant Human IL-18 Protein is produced by E. coli expression system. The target protein is expressed with sequence (Tyr37-Asp193) of human IL-18 (Accession #NP_001553.1). |
| Post Translational Modifications | The pro-IL-18 precursor is processed by CASP1 or CASP4 to yield the active form. |
| 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. |
