Source: E. Coli   Catalog No.: CYT-425   Introduction:

Interleukin 33 (IL-33) is a 32kDa proinflammatory cytokine that may also regulate gene transcription in producer cells. IL-33 is structurally related to IL-1, which induces helper T cells to produce type 2 cytokines and acts through the receptor IL1RL-1 (IL1 receptor-like-1), which is known also as ST2. Binding of IL-33 to this receptor activates NF-kappa-B and MAP kinases and induces in vitro Th2 cells to produce cytokines. In vivo, IL-33 induces expression of IL-4, IL-5, IL-13 and leads to severe pathological changes in mucosal organs and in vitro, it can be divided to N-terminal fragment of 12kDa and C-terminal fragment of 18kDa by cleavage of caspase-1.

Description:

Interleukin33 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 160 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 18 kDa.  The IL-33 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Synonyms:

Interleukin 33, DVS27, NF-HEV, NKHEV, C9orf26, Interleukin-1 family member 11, IL- 1F11, Nuclear factor from high endothelial venules, NFEHEV, DKFZp586H0523, RP11-575C20.2, IL-33.

Physical Appearance:

Sterile Filtered colorless liquid at a concentration of 1 mg/ml.

Formulation:

The protein is formulated in 20mM Tris pH-8.

Stability:

IL-33 although stable at 14 °C for 1 week, should be stored desiccated below -18 °C. Upon arrival IL33 Recombinant should be stored at 4 °C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18 °C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Please avoid freeze-thaw cycles.

Purity:
