Related Product Information for IFN alpha-2a active protein
Description: Recombinant human IFN alpha-2a produced in Yeast is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 165 amino acids, two pairs of disulfide bonds and having a molecular mass of approximately 19.2kD.
Introduction: Human Interferon alpha-2a is a single polypeptide chain of 165 amino acids residues, containing 4 Cys to form two disulfide bonds at positions of Cys 1- Cys 98 and Cys 29-Cys 138, and it has a molecular mass of approximately 19.2kD. IFN can exert certain cell activities through binding to specific cell surface receptors, as firstly induce to develop special proteins, such as protein kinase and 2', 5'-oligo polyadenylic acid synthase etc. The unique character of two enzymes is that they can be activated respectively by double chains RNA to produce the effect of self-phosphorylation. INF can also enhance phagocytosis activity of macrophage and special toxicity of lymphocyte to target cells to cause immunoloregulation. Its biological effects contains: (1) Anti-virus: INF alpha has broad-spectrum anti-virus effect; (2) Cytostatic effect to certain cells; (3) Immunoloregulation effect: accelerate the expression of MHC antigen by most cell and active NK cell and CTL. (4) Repress and kill tumor cells: INF-alpha kill the tumor cells through accelerating the immunological function and enhancing the killing ability of macrophage, NK and CTL.

Product Notes
The IFN alpha-2a (Catalog #AAA434176) is an Active Protein produced from Yeast and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Interferon alpha-2a, Active Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
