Abbreviation: IL-1α
Target Synonym: IL-1 alpha;Hematopoietin-1;IL1A;IL1F1;Interleukin-1 alpha;IL1a
Target Species: Human
Expression Host: HEK293 Cells
Fusion Tag: C-His
UNIProt ID: P01583
Background: Produced by activated macrophages, IL-1 stimulates thymocyte proliferation by inducing IL-2 release, B-cell maturation and proliferation, and fibroblast growth factor activity. IL-1 proteins are involved in the inflammatory response, being identified as endogenous pyrogens, and are reported to stimulate the release of prostaglandin and collagenase from synovial cells.
Sequence: Met1-Ala271
Purity: > 90 % as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE.
Formulation: Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4., 5% trehalose, 5% mannitol, 0.01% tween-80.
Normally 5 % - 8 % trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween80 are added as protectants before lyophilization.
Please refer to the specific buffer information in the printed manual.
Endotoxin: < 1.0 EU per ug of the protein as determined by the LAL method.
