Introduction
Interferon alpha-14 (IFNA14) is a member of the alpha/beta interferon family. IFNA14 is produced by macrophages (IFN-alpha have antiviral activities). The interferon stimulates the production of 2 enzymes: a protein kinase and an oligoadenylate synthetase.
Description
IFNA14 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 191 amino acids (24-189 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 22.4kDa.
IFNA14 is fused to a 25 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Source
Escherichia Coli.
Physical Appearance
Sterile filtered colorless solution.
Formulation
IFNA14 protein solution (0.5mg/ml) containing 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH8.0), 50% glycerol, 0.2M NaCl and 2mM DTT.
