Product Details

Supplier Product No.: 009-001-b32

Supplier: Rockland

Purpose: IL-17A Human Recombinant Protein

Purification: Recombinant protein corresponds to amino acids 19 - 155 of mature human IL-17A. Its molecular weight is 15,667 Daltons. Purity is greater than 90% as determined by reducing and non-reducing SDS-PAGE and by analytical HPLC.

Endotoxin Level: Measured by LAL is < 0.01 ng/μg or < 0.1 EU/μg protein.

Biological Activity Comment: Human IL-17A is fully biologically active when compared to standards via dose-dependent induction of IL-6 production in cultured mouse NIH 3T3 fibroblasts. The ED50 for recombinant human IL-17A in this assay was 1.4-2.1 ng/mL.

Application Details

Application Notes:

Application Note: IL-17A protein has been tested by SDS-PAGE and is suitable as a control for polyclonal or monoclonal anti-IL-17A in immunological assays.

Background: Interleukin17-A is a proinflammatory cytokine produced by activated T cells and exists as a homodimer. This cytokine regulates the activities of NF-kappaB and mitogen-activated protein kinases. IL-17A 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. IL17-A is the founding member of a group of cytokines called the IL-17 family. IL17-A was originally identified as a transcript from a rodent T-cell hybridoma. To elicit its functions, IL17 binds to a type I cell surface receptor called IL17R of which there are at least three variants: IL17RA, IL17RB, and IL17RC.
