Description :
|
The originally described IL-17 protein, now known as IL-17A, is a homodimer of two 136 amino acid chains, secreted by activated T-cells that act on stromal cells to induce production of proinflammatory and hematopoietic bioactive molecules. Today, IL-17 represents a family of structurally-related cytokines that share a highly conserved C-terminal region but differ from one another in their N-terminal regions and in their distinct biological roles. The six known members of this family, IL-17A through IL-17F, are secreted as homodimers. IL-17A exhibits cross-species bioactivity between human and murine cells. Recombinant human IL-17A is a 31.0 kDa disulfide-linked homodimer of two 136 amino acid polypeptide chains. Manufactured using all non-animal reagents.

|
Endotoxin Level :
|
Endotoxin level is less than 0.1 ng per μg (1EU/μg).

Biological Activity :
|
Assay #1: Determined by the dose-dependent induction of IL-6 in primary human foreskin fibroblast. The expected ED50 is ≤ 2.0 ng/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of ≥ 5 x 105 units/mg.
Assay #2: Measured by its ability to induce IL-6 production by NHDF cells.
