Quick Overview for IL-6 Protein (AA 30-212) (Biotin) (ABIN2444149)

Target: IL-6 (IL6) (Interleukin 6 (IL6))

Protein Type: Recombinant

Biological Activity: Active

Origin: Human

Source: HEK-293 Cells

Purity: >95 % as determined by SDS-PAGE.

Product Details

Protein Characteristics: AA 30-212

Purification tag / Conjugate: This IL-6 protein is labelled with Biotin.

Brand: MABSol®,UltraLys

Sequence: AA 30-212

Specificity: The primary amines in the side chains of lysine residues and the N-terminus of the protein are conjugated with biotins using standard chemical labeling method. A standard biotin reagent (13.5 angstroms) is used in this product.

Characteristics: The product does NOT contain any epitope tags. The protein has a calculated MW of 20.8 kDa. The protein migrates as 24-27 kDa on a SDS-PAGE gel under reducing (R) condition due to different glycosylation.

Endotoxin Level: Less than 1.0 EU per μg by the LAL method.

Application Details

Comment:

A chemically labeled biotinylated protein with ultra sensitivity.
The product is produced using a chemical labeling approach. The primary amines in the side chains of lysine residues and the N-terminus of protein are conjugated with biotins.
Chemical labeling usually results in multiple biotin attachment on a single protein molecule, which could potentially lead to higher detection sensitivity.

Restrictions: For Research Use only

Target Details

Target: IL-6 (IL6) (Interleukin 6 (IL6))

Alternative Name: IL-6

Background: Interleukin 6 (IL-6) is also known as HGF, BSF2,HSF, IFNB2 and IL-6, originally identified as a B cell differentiation factor, is a multifunctional cytokine that regulates immune responses, hematopoiesis, acute phase responses, and inflammatory reactions.It is secreted by T cells, macrophages , monocytes, fibroblasts,endothelial cells,et.al. to stimulate immune response to trauma, especially burns or other tissue damage leading to inflammation. Interleukin 6 has been shown to interact with interleukin-6 receptor and glycoprotein. IL-6 is relevant to many disease processes such as diabetes,atherosclerosis, depression,Alzheimer's Disease,systemic,lupus erythematosus,prostate cancer and rheumatoid arthritis. Advanced/metastatic cancer patients have higher levels of IL-6 in their blood.Hence there is an interest in developing anti-IL-6 agents as therapy against many of these diseases.
