IL-18BP Protein, Human (Biotinylated, HEK293, His-Avi)

IL-18BP isoform A, a potent regulator, binds to IL-18, effectively inhibiting its activity. Serving as a suppressor, IL-18BP restrains early TH1 cytokine responses, playing a pivotal role in modulating immune reactions and maintaining cytokine balance. IL-18BP Protein, Human (Biotinylated, HEK293, His-Avi) is the recombinant human-derived IL-18BP protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-Avi, C-His labeled tag. The total length of IL-18BP Protein, Human (Biotinylated, HEK293, His-Avi) is 164 a.a., with molecular weight of 42-62 kDa.

IL-18 binding protein (IL-18BP), specifically isoform A, serves as a potent regulator by binding to IL-18 and effectively inhibiting its activity. Acting as a suppressor, IL-18BP functions to restrain the early TH1 cytokine response, highlighting its pivotal role in modulating immune reactions and maintaining cytokine balance.

42-62 kDa

Greater than 95% as determined by Tris-Bis PAGE.

Lyophilized powder.

Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4. Normally 8% trehalose is added as protectant before lyophilization.

<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.

It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH₂O.

Stored at -20°C for 2 years. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.

Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.
