Biological Activity

Description

IFN-gamma Protein, Human (CHO) is a cytokine with potent immunomodulatory, antiviral and antitumor activities.

Background

Human Interferon-gamma (hIFNγ) is naturally produced by CD4+ T helper cell type 1 (Th1) lymphocytes, CD8+ cytotoxic lymphocytes, natural killer (NK) cells, B cells, NKT cells, and professional antigen-presenting cells (APCs). Secretion of hIFNγ by NK cells and APCs is important in early host reactions against infection while production of hIFNγ by T lymphocytes is important in the adaptive immune response. hIFNγ shows antiviral and antitumor activity and is involved in complex interactions of cellular metabolism and differentiation[1]. Interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) is a cytokine with potent immunomodulatory propertiy. IFN-γ activates cells via a different receptor than IFN-α and IFN-β, which accounts for the different physiological properties of the proteins[2].

Verified Bioactivity

1.The ED50 is <2 ng/mL as measured in a cytotoxicity assay using HT-29 cells, corresponding to a specific activity of >5 × 105 units/mg.
2.Measured in antiviral assays using WISH cells infected with vesicular stomatitisvirus (VSV). The ED50 for this effect is 0.02-0.2 ng/mL.

Product Properties

Appearance

Lyophilized powder

Formulation

1.Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of PBS.
2.Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4, 8% trehalose.
Please refer to the lot-specific COA for specific buffer information.

Endotoxin Level

<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.

Reconstitution

It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH2O. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose).

Storage & Stability

Stored at -20°C for 2 years from date of receipt. 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.

Shipping

Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.
