TNF-alpha, (soluble) (mouse), (recombinant)

Cat. Num. AAA566200

• Gene Names: Tnf; DIF; Tnfa; TNF-a; TNFSF2; Tnlg1f; Tnfsf1a; TNFalpha; TNF-alpha
• Reactivity: Human, Mouse, Rat
• Applications: ELISA
• Purity: >=90% (SDS-PAGE)
• Synonyms: TNF-alpha; (soluble) (mouse); (recombinant); TNF-alpha active protein

• Host: E Coli
• Reactivity: Human, Mouse, Rat
• Specificity: Binds to human, mouse and rat TNF-R1 and less efficiently to TNF-R2. In the presence of cross-linking enhancer, TNF-alpha shows a significantly higher affinity for TNF-R2 than for TNF-R1, mimicking the characteristics of membrane-bound TNF-alpha
• Purity/Purification: >=90% (SDS-PAGE)
• Form/Format: Lyophilized. Contains PBS
• Concentration: 1mg/ml after reconstitution (varies by lot)

• Applicable Applications for TNF-alpha active protein: ELISA (EIA)
• Source Note: The extracellular domain of mouse TNF-alpha (tumor necrosis factor-alpha) (aa 77-235) is fused at the N-terminus to a linker peptide (8 aa) and a DYKDDDDK-tag
• Endotoxin: <0.1EU/ug purified protein (LAL test)
• Reconstitution: Reconstitute with 50ul sterile water. Further dilutions should be made with medium containing 5% fetal calf serum
• Product Notes: Historical lots have shown that it exerts its biological activity in a concentration range of 0.5-1ng/ml (WEHI 164 cells)
• Preparation and Storage: Stable for at least 6 months after receipt when stored at -20 degree C; Avoid freeze/thaw cycles. After reconstitution, prepare aliquots and store at -20 degree C; Shipping: Shipped on Blue Ice

Uniprot Description

TNF-a: Cytokine that binds to TNFRSF1A/TNFR1 and TNFRSF1B/TNFBR. It is mainly secreted by macrophages and can induce cell death of certain tumor cell lines. It is potent pyrogen causing fever by direct action or by stimulation of interleukin-1 secretion and is implicated in the induction of cachexia, Under certain conditions it can stimulate cell proliferation and induce cell differentiation. Homotrimer. Interacts with SPPL2B. Belongs to the tumor necrosis factor family.
