Name : Human IL-13 Protein

Product Source :
Recombinant Human IL-13 Protein is expressed from HEK293 without tag. It contains Gly21-Asn132.[Accession | AAK53823]

Molecular Weight :
The protein has a predicted MW of 12.35 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 20-45 kDa based on Tris-Bis PAGE result.

Endotoxin Level :
Less than 1EU per μg by the LAL method.

Purity :
> 95% as determined by Tris-Bis PAGE> 95% as determined by HPLC

Formulation :
Lyophilized from 0.22μm filtered solution in PBS (pH 7.4). Normally 8% trehalose is added as protectant before lyophilization.

Reconstitution :
Centrifuge the tube before opening. Reconstituting to a concentration more than 100 μg/ml is recommended. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water.

Storage and Stability :
-20 to -80°C for 12 months as supplied from date of receipt.-80°C for 3-6 months after reconstitution.2-8°C for 2-7 days after reconstitution.Recommend to aliquot the protein into smaller quantities for optimal storage. Please minimize freeze-thaw cycles.

Product Concentration :
Tris-Bis PAGE Human IL-13 on Tris-Bis PAGE under reduced condition. The purity is greater than 95%. SEC-HPLC The purity of Human IL-13 is greater than 95% as determined by SEC-HPLC. ELISA Data Immobilized Human IL-13, No Tag at 2μg/ml (100μl/Well) on the plate. Dose response curve for Human IL-13 Ra 2, hFc Tag with the EC50 of 0.91μg/ml determined by ELISA.

Background :
Interleukin-13 (IL-13) is a monomeric 17 kDa immunoregulatory cytokine that plays a key role in the pathogenesis of allergy, cancer, and tissue fibrosis. It is secreted by several helper T cell subsets, NK cells, mast cells, eosinophils, basophils, and visceral smooth muscle cells. Inhibits inflammatory cytokine production. Synergizes with IL2 in regulating interferon-gamma synthesis. May be critical in regulating inflammatory and immune responses. Positively regulates IL31RA expression in macrophages (By similarity).

Synonyms :
IL13; IL-13; interleukin 13; NC30; P600; ALRH; BHR1; MGC116786; MGC116788; MGC116789
