IL-4 Protein, Bovine
Based on 1 Customer Validation
IL-4 Protein, a key participant in B-cell activation and various cell types, acts as a costimulator of DNA synthesis. It induces class II MHC molecules on B-cells, enhances IgE and IgG1 secretion and expression, and regulates CD23 on lymphocytes and monocytes. IL-4 positively regulates IL31RA in macrophages and stimulates autophagy in dendritic cells by interfering with mTORC1 signaling and inducing RUFY4. IL-4 Protein, Bovine is the recombinant bovine-derived IL-4 protein, expressed by E. coli , with tag free.
- Species: Bovine
- Source: E. coli

Storage: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.

Description

Background
IL-4 protein actively participates in multiple B-cell activation processes and influences various cell types as a critical regulator. Functioning as a costimulator, IL-4 stimulates DNA synthesis and induces the expression of class II MHC molecules on resting B-cells. Furthermore, it plays a pivotal role in enhancing both the secretion and cell surface expression of IgE and IgG1, contributing to immune responses. IL-4 also regulates the expression of the low-affinity Fc receptor for IgE (CD23) on lymphocytes and monocytes. Beyond its effects on B-cells, IL-4 positively regulates IL31RA expression in macrophages, further diversifying its immunomodulatory functions. Additionally, IL-4 stimulates autophagy in dendritic cells by interfering with mTORC1 signaling and inducing RUFY4, underscoring its intricate involvement in cellular processes across different immune cell types.

Product Properties
Lyophilized powder.
Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4.
<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.
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 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.
Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.
