Interleukin 17 Active Protein

Interleukin 17, Recombinant, Mouse (IL-17)

Purity
Highly Purified
95% as determined by RP-HPLC, anion-exchange FPLC and/or reducing and non-reducing SDS-PAGE Silver Stained gel.
Synonyms
Interleukin 17; Recombinant; Mouse (IL-17); Interleukin 17 active protein
Ordering
For Research Use Only!
Host
E Coli
Purity/Purification
Highly Purified
95% as determined by RP-HPLC, anion-exchange FPLC and/or reducing and non-reducing SDS-PAGE Silver Stained gel.
Form/Format
Supplied as a lyophilized powder without additives.
Sequence
The sequence of the first five N-terminal amino acids was determined and was found to be, Ala-Ala-Ile-Ile-Pro.
Biological Activity
Mouse IL-17 is fully biologically active when compared to standard. The ED50 as determined by the dose-dependent secretion of IL-6 by NIH 3T3 cells was found to be 1.0-10.0 ng/mL,
Dimers and Aggregates
Less than 1% as determined by silver-stained SDS-PAGE gel analysis.
Endotoxin Level
0.1ng/ug (IEU/ug) of mouse IL-17.
Protein Content
Protein quantitation was carried out by two independent methods:
1. UV spectroscopy at 280 nm using the absorbency value of 0.942 as the extinction coefficient for a 0.1% (1mg/ml) solution. This value is calculated by the PC GENE computer analysis program of protein sequences (IntelliGenetics).
2. Analysis by RP-HPLC, using a standard solution of IL-17 as a Reference Standard.
Solubility
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Recombinant Interleukin-17 in sterile 18M -cm H2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
Preparation and Storage
-20 degree C
Stability: Lyophilized Recombinant Mouse Interleukin-17 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -180C. Upon reconstitution Mouse Interleukin-17 should be stored at 40C between 2-7 days and for future use below -180C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Please avoid freeze-thaw cycles.
Related Product Information for Interleukin 17 active protein
IL-17 is a potent proinflammatory cytokine produced by activated memory T cells. There are at least six members of the IL-17 family in humans and in mice. As interleukin-17 shares properties with IL-1 and TNF-alpha, it may induce joint inflammation and bone and cartilage destruction. This cytokine is found in synovial fluids of patients with rheumatoid arthritis, and produced by rheumatoid arthritis synovium. It increases IL-6 production, induces collagen degradation and decreases collagen synthesis by synovium and cartilage and proteoglycan synthesis in cartilage. Interleukin-17 is also able to increase bone destruction and reduce its formation. Blocking of interleukin-17 with specific inhibitors provides a protective inhibition of cartilage and bone degradation

Recombinant Murine IL-17 produced in E.Coli is a homodimeric, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing a total of 266 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 29,956 Dalton. Recombinant Mouse Interleukin-17 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

NCBI Description

The protein encoded by this gene is a proinflammatory cytokine produced by activated T cells. This cytokine regulates the activities of NF-kappaB and mitogen-activated protein kinases. This cytokine can stimulate the expression of IL6 and cyclooxygenase-2 (PTGS2/COX-2), as well as enhance the production of nitric oxide (NO). High levels of this cytokine are associated with several chronic inflammatory diseases including rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis and multiple sclerosis. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Product Notes

The Interleukin 17 (Catalog #AAA650651) is an Active Protein produced from E Coli and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The amino acid sequence is listed below: The sequence of the first five N-terminal amino acids was determined and was found to be, Ala-Ala-Il e-Ile-Pro. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Interleukin 17, 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.
