Interleukin-17 Human Recombinant

Description	Interleukin-17A Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a homodimeric, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing a total of 264 amino acids (2 chains of 132 aa) and having a molecular mass of 31kDa.  The IL-17 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Protein Content	Protein quantitation was carried out by two independent methods1. UV spectroscopy at 280 nm using the absorbency value of 1.13 as the extinction coefficient for a 0.1% (1mg/ml) solution. This value is calculated by the PC GENE computer analysis program of protein sequences (IntelliGenetics). 2. Analysis by RP-HPLC, using a standard solution of IL-17 as a Reference Standard.
Synonyms	CTLA-8, IL-17, IL-17A, Cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated antigen 8.
Source	Escherichia Coli.
Purity	>96% as determined by SDS-PAGE and HPLC
Formulation	Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder. Sterile filtered lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder, with 20mM Citrate, 0.1M NaCl, pH4.5.
Stability	The lyophilized form of the protein is stable at room temperature for 3 weeks and at -20°C for at least 2 years from the date of receipt. Upon reconstitution, the protein should be stored at 4°C for no more than 7 days. The protein is stable at -20°C for six months. For long term storage, please store at -80°C and the addition of a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA) is recommended. Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
Biological Activity	The ED50 as determined by the dose-dependent induction of IL-6 in Hs68 cell line was found to be approximately 2ng/ml corresponding to a Specific Activity of 500,000IU/mg.
Solubility	It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Interleukin 17 in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
Usage	LABORATORY RESEARCH USE ONLY. Not intended for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes.
