IFN-gamma R1/CD119 Protein, Rat (HEK293, Fc)

IFN-gamma R1 (CD119), one of the subunit of IFN-gamma receptor, is a receptor for IFN-gamma. IFN-gamma R1 forms the functional receptor with IFN-gamma R2. Upon binding with IFN-gamma, IFN-gamma R1 and IFN-gamma R2 oligomerize and transphosphorylate^[1]. Then, JAK1 and JAK2 are phosphorylated and activated, and STAT1 is recruited to the receptor complex. Phosphorylated STAT1 translocates to the nucleus, where it regulates the expression of IFN-responsive genes (e.g. CD54)^[2]. IFN-gamma R1/CD119 Protein, Rat (HEK293, Fc) is a recombinant mouse IFN-gamma R1 (M1-S241) with C-terminal hFc tag, which is produced in HEK293 cells.

IFN-gamma R1 (CD119), one of the subunit of IFN-gamma receptor, is a receptor for IFN-gamma. IFN-gamma R1 is constitutively expressed on the surface of almost all cells^[1].
IFN-gamma R1 can associate with IFN-gamma R2 to form a functional receptor. Upon binding with IFN-gamma, IFNγR1 and IFNγR2 oligomerize and transphosphorylate^[1]. Then, JAK1 and JAK2 are phosphorylated and activated, and STAT1 is recruited to the receptor complex. The phosphorylation of IFNγR1 creates a docking site for STAT1 and leads to the phosphorylation of STAT1. Phosphorylated STAT1 translocates to the nucleus, where it regulates the expression of IFN-responsive genes (e.g. CD54). IFN-gamma R1 deficiencies are associated with immune responses mediated by IFN-γ, and increased susceptibility to infections. IFN-gamma R1 signaling pathway is important in activating cancer cell death and inhibiting cancer progression^[3]
The sequence of amino acids in IFNAR1 differs in different species. Rat IFN-gamma R1 shares 73.5% aa sequence identity with mouse. Rat IFN-gamma R1 shares 49.89% aa sequence identity with human. IFN-gamma R1 plays a critical role in antimicrobial, antiviral, and antitumor responses^[2].

IFN-gamma R1 (murine, -2 μg/mL, 4 h) suppresses AP(+)-exosome-mediated NO synthesis in RAW264.7 cells^[4].

Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. Immobilized Human IFN-gamma at 5 μg/mL (100 μL/well) can bind Rat IFN-gamma R1. The ED₅₀ for this effect is 0.1293 µg/mL.

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).

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.
