Description
IFN-ω, human recombinant is available at Gentaur for Next week delivery.
Exerts antiviral and antiproliferative activities
Biomolecule/Target: IFN-ω
Alternates names: IFN alpha II-1, IFNW1
Synonyms: IFN alpha II-1, IFNW1
Background Information: IFN-ω is a type I interferon, which can be induced by virus-infected leukocytes. Members of the type I interferon family, which includes IFN-α, IFN-β, and IFN-ω, signal through IFNAR-1/IFNAR-2 receptor complex, and exert antiviral and antiproliferative activities. IFN-ω exhibits about 75% sequence homology with IFN-α, and contains two conserved disulfide bonds, which are necessary for full biological activity. Recombinant Human IFN-ω is a 19.9 kDa protein consisting of 172 amino acid residues.
Reconstitution Instructions: Centrifuge the vial prior to opening. Reconstitute in water to a concentration of 1.0 mg/ml. Do not vortex. This solution can be stored at 2-8°C for up to 1 week. For extended storage, it is recommended to further dilute in a buffer containing a carrier protein (example 0.1% BSA) and store in working aliquots at -20°C to -80°C.
