Purity | > 95 % as determined by SDS-PAGE |
Protein Construction | A DNA sequence encoding the human IFNW1 (P05000) (Met1-Ser195) was expressed with a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus. |
Bio-activity | Measured in antiviral assays using WISH human amnion cells infected with vesicular stomatitis virus(VSV). The ED50 for this effect is typically 2-8 pg/mL. |
Research Area | Epigenetics |Cell cycle |Cell Differentiation |
Formulation | Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4 1. Normally 5 % - 8 % trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween80 are added as protectants before lyophilization. Specific concentrations are included in the hardcopy of COA. |
Background | IFNs are a large family of proteins having antiviral, antiproliferative, and immunomodulatory effects, and are divided into two major classes, type I and type I I, on the basis of differences in receptor binding and nucleotide sequence. Type I IFNs consist of IFN α, β, τ, and ω and bind to the type I IFN receptor, whereas IFN-γ is the only type I I IFN and is specific for the type I I IFN receptor. Human IFN-ω, was identified by three independent groups in 1985 and is structurally related to IFN-α and -β. Both human IFN-ω and IFN-α are produced by virally induced leukocytes and have similar antiviral activities on human cell lines, and a sizeable proportion (at least 10%) of the total antiviral activity of leukocyte IFN is contributed by IFN-ωl. In addition, it was reported that IFN-ω could inhibit the growth of human tumors in vivo. |
