IL-17A recombinant protein
Recombinant Rat IL-17A
Background: IL-17A is a member of the IL-17 family, which is comprised of 6 members [IL-17A, IL-17B, IL-17C, IL-17D, IL-17E (also called IL-25), and IL-17F]. IL-17 family members are involved in numerous immune regulatory functions, including inducing and mediating proinflammatory responses and allergic responses. IL-17 induces the production of many other cytokines (IL-6, G-CSF, GM-CSF, IL-1beta, TGF-beta, and TNF-alpha), chemokines, including IL-8 (CXCL8), GRO-alpha (CXCL1) and MCP-1 (CCL2), and prostaglandins from many cell types (fibroblasts, endothelial cells, epithelial cells, keratinocytes and macrophages).
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
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 IL-17A il17a (Catalog #AAA258262) is a Recombinant Protein produced from Yeast and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Rat IL-17A protein can be used in cell culture, as an IL-17A ELISA Standard, and as a Western Blot Control. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the IL-17A il17a for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. The amino acid sequence is listed below: AVLIPQSSVC PNAEANNFLQ NVKVNLKVLN SLSSKASSRR PSDYLNRSTS PWTLSRNEDP DRYPSVIWEA QCRHQRCVNA EGKLDHHMNS VLIQQEILVL KREPEKCPFT FRVEKMLVGV GCTCVSSIVR HAS (133). It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "IL-17A, Recombinant 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
