Name : Human IL-1 Beta/IL-1F2 Protein

Product Source :
Recombinant Human IL-1 Beta/IL-1F2 Protein is expressed from E.coil with His tag and Avi tag at the C-Terminus. It contains Ala117-Ser269.[Accession | P01584]

Molecular Weight :
The protein has a predicted MW of 20.1 kDa same as 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 SEC-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-1 Beta on Tris-Bis PAGE under reduced condition. The purity is greater than 95%. SEC-HPLC The purity of Human IL-1 Beta is greater than 95% as determined by SEC-HPLC. ELISA Data Immobilized Human IL-1 Beta, His Tag at 5μg/ml (100μl/Well) on the plate. Dose response curve for Human IL-1R2, hFc Tag with the EC50 of 0.44μg/ml determined by ELISA (QC Test). SPR Data Human IL-1R2, hFc Tag captured on CM5 Chip via Protein A can bind Human IL-1 Beta, His Tag with an affinity constant of 0.88 nM as determined in SPR assay (Biacore T200).

Background :
Interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β) is induced by inflammatory signals in a broad number of immune cell types. IL-1β (and IL-18) are the only cytokines which are processed by caspase-1 after inflammasome-mediated activation. IL-1 signaling activates innate immune cells including antigen presenting cells, and drives polarization of CD4 T cells towards T helper type (Th) 1 and Th17 cells.
