Product Information

  • Product Name
    Human IL-28B/IFN-lambda-3 (His Tag) recombinant protein
  • Documents
  • Description
    Cytokine with antiviral, antitumour and immunomodulatory activities. Plays a critical role in the antiviral host defense, predominantly in the epithelial tissues. Acts as a ligand for the heterodimeric class II cytokine receptor composed of IL10RB and IFNLR1, and receptor engagement leads to the activation of the JAK/STAT signaling pathway resulting in the expression of IFN-stimulated genes (ISG), which mediate the antiviral state. Has a restricted receptor distribution and therefore restricted targets: is primarily active in epithelial cells and this cell type-selective action is because of the epithelial cell-specific expression of its receptor IFNLR1. Seems not to be essential for early virus-activated host defense in vaginal infection, but plays an important role in Toll-like receptor (TLR)-induced antiviral defense. Plays a significant role in the antiviral immune defense in the intestinal epithelium. Exerts an immunomodulatory effect by up-regulating MHC class I antigen expression.
  • Protein name

  • Gene Name
    IFNL3; IL28B; IL28C; ZCYTO22
  • Source/Expression Host
    Human Cells
  • Expression Plasmid/cDNA
    A DNA sequence encoding the human IL28B (NP_742151.2) (Met 1-Val 196) was expressed, with a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus.
  • Protein Species
    Human
  • Molecular weight
    The recombinant human IL28B consists of 186 amino acids and predictes a molecular mass of 21 kDa. In SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions, rhIL28B migrates as an approximately 23 kDa band.
  • Purity
    > 96 % as determined by SDS-PAGE
  • Activity
    1. Measured in antiviral assays using WISH human amnion cells infected with vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV). The EC50 for this effect is typically 2-6 ng/mL.
    2. Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. Immobilized human IL28B at 20 μg/ml (100 μl/well) can bind human IL10RB with a linear ranger of 3.125-25 μg/ml.
