IL-4R alpha protein, Canine (HEK293, His)

Customer Review

Based on 1 Customer Validation

IL-4R alpha is the α subunit shared by the IL-4 and IL-13 receptors and was initially discovered in leukocytes. IL-4R alpha is coupled to the JAK1/2/3-STAT6 pathway and participates in promoting Th2 differentiation. IL-4R alpha binds to IL-4, causing phosphorylation of its C-terminal tyrosine residue. IL-4R alpha possesses an immunoreceptor tyrosine inhibitor motif (ITIM), and by phosphorylating ITIM, it can bind to the SH2 domain of a partial phosphatase. IL-4R alpha contains a transmembrane domain. IL-4R alpha protein, Canine is expressed by HEK293 cells and includes a type III fibronectin domain and a C-terminal C-6*His tag.

Product Properties

Appearance

Lyophilized powder

Formulation

1.Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4.
2.Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of 20 mM PB, 150 mM NaCl, pH 7.4.
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
