Human IFN-gamma protein, His Tag

Amino acid sequence derived from Human IFN-gamma soluble form (NP_01579.1) (Gln24-Gln166) was expressed, was expressed with a polyhistidine tag at the N-terminus.

E. coli

Lyophilized from sterile 150mM NaCl 20mM Tris , pH 7.0.

Always centrifuge tubes before opening. It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Human IFN-gamma protein in sterile ddH2O not less than 100ug/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.

The product is shipped at ambient temperature.

IFN gamma, also known as IFNG, is a secreted protein which belongs to the type I I interferon family. IFN gamma is produced predominantly by natural killer and natural killer T cells as part of the innate immune response, and by CD4 and CD8 cytotoxic T lymphocyte effector T cells once antigen-specific immunity develops. IFN gamma has antiviral, immunoregulatory, and anti-tumor properties. IFNG, in addition to having antiviral activity, has important immunoregulatory functions, it is a potent activator of macrophages, and has antiproliferative effects on transformed cells and it can potentiate the antiviral and antitumor effects of the type I interferons. The IFNG monomer consists of a core of six alpha-helices and an extended unfolded sequence in the C-terminal region. IFN gamma is critical for innate and adaptive immunity against viral and intracellular bacterial infections and for tumor control. Aberrant IFN gamma expression is associated with a number of autoinflammatory and autoimmune diseases. The importance of IFN gamma in the immune system stems in part from its ability to inhibit viral replication directly, and most importantly from its immunostimulatory and immunomodulatory effects. IFNG also promotes NK cell activity.
