  5. IL-18BP Protein, Cynomolgus (HEK293, His)

The IL-18BP protein is an inhibitor of IL-18, which binds to IL-18 and prevents IL-18 from binding to its receptor, thereby inhibiting IL-18-induced IFN-γ production. IL-18BP protein is constitutively expressed and secreted in monocytes. IFN-γ can enhance the expression of this protein. IL-18BP Protein, Cynomolgus (HEK293, His) is the recombinant cynomolgus-derived IL-18BP protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-His labeled tag.

Description

The IL-18BP protein is an inhibitor of IL-18, which binds to IL-18 and prevents IL-18 from binding to its receptor, thereby inhibiting IL-18-induced IFN-γ production. IL-18BP protein is constitutively expressed and secreted in monocytes. IFN-γ can enhance the expression of this protein. IL-18BP Protein, Cynomolgus (HEK293, His) is the recombinant cynomolgus-derived IL-18BP protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-His labeled tag.

Background

Interleukin-18 is an interferon (IFN-γ) inducer and a member of the interleukin-1 (IL-1) cytokine family. IL-1 cytokines and their receptors are involved in inflammation, fever, and immune stimulation. IL-18 binding protein is an inhibitor of IL-18, which binds to IL-18 and prevents IL-18 from binding to its receptor, thereby inhibiting IL-18-induced IFN-γ production. IL-18 binding protein is constitutively expressed and secreted in monocytes. IFN-γ can enhance the expression of this protein[1][2].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.

  • Reconstitution Calculator

  • Dilution Calculator

  • Specific Activity Calculator

The reconstitution calculator equation

Volume (to add to vial) = Mass (in vial) ÷ Desired Reconstitution Concentration

Volume (to add to vial) = Mass (in vial) ÷ Desired Reconstitution Concentration
= ÷

The dilution calculator equation

Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)

This equation is commonly abbreviated as: C1V1 = C2V2

Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)
× = ×
C1   V1   C2   V2

The specific activity calculator equation

Specific Activity (Unit/mg) = 106 ÷ Biological Activity (ED50)

Specific Activity (Unit/mg) = 106 ÷ Biological Activity (ED50)
Unit/mg = 106 ÷ ng/mL
