Related Product Information for IL12A recombinant protein

Recombinant Interleukin-12p35 comprises a 197 amino acid fragment (57-253) corresponding to the mature Interleukin-12p35 chain protein and is expressed in E. coli with an amino-terminal hexahistidine tag.

Active IL-12 is a p70 disulfide-linked dimer composed of p35 and p40 subunits. The protein is a pleiotropic cytokine produced primarily by antigen presenting cells and has multiple effects on T lymphocytes and natural killer cells in terms of stimulating cytotoxicity, proliferation, production of other cytokines and Th1 subset differentiation.

NCBI Description

This gene encodes a subunit of a cytokine that acts on T and natural killer cells, and has a broad array of biological activities. The cytokine is a disulfide-linked heterodimer composed of the 35-kD subunit encoded by this gene, and a 40-kD subunit that is a member of the cytokine receptor family. This cytokine is required for the T-cell-independent induction of interferon (IFN)-gamma, and is important for the differentiation of both Th1 and Th2 cells. The responses of lymphocytes to this cytokine are mediated by the activator of transcription protein STAT4. Nitric oxide synthase 2A (NOS2A/NOS2) is found to be required for the signaling process of this cytokine in innate immunity. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Uniprot Description

Function: Cytokine that can act as a growth factor for activated T and NK cells, enhance the lytic activity of NK/lymphokine-activated Killer cells, and stimulate the production of IFN-gamma by resting PBMC.

Subunit structure: Heterodimer with IL12B; disulfide-linked. The heterodimer is known as interleukin IL-12. Ref.8

Subcellular location: Secreted.

Induction: Down-regulated in response to enterovirus 71 (EV71) infection. Ref.7

Sequence similarities: Belongs to the IL-6 superfamily.

Sequence caution: The sequence AAA59937.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Erroneous initiation.
