Description
Interleukin 7 (IL-7) is a cytokine involved in the regulation of immune cell development and survival, including T and B lymphocytes. It is produced by stromal cells, such as fibroblasts and bone marrow stromal cells. Dysregulation of IL-7 signaling has been implicated in autoimmune diseases and cancer.
Molecular Weight
The protein has a predicted MW of 19.34 kDa. And it migrates as 25-33 kDa under reducing (R) condition (SDS-PAGE) due to glycosylation.
Purity
> 95% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
Endotoxin
<0.1 EU per 1μg of the protein by the LAL method.
Formulation
Lyophilized from 0.22 μm filtered solution in PBS (pH 7.4).
Reconstitution
Centrifuge tubes before opening. Dissolve lyophilized protein with sterile PBS to ensure the concentration is greater than 100 ug/mL.
