Introduction
The cytokine IL-1 alpha or hematopoietin 1 is a member to the interleukin 1 family, encoded by the IL1A gene in humans. Essentially Il-1 is in charge of inflammation and the rising of fever and sepsis. In order to disturb the mentioned processes and treatment for diseases, inhibitors for Interleukin 1 alpha are being developed. Neutrophils and macrophages are the main activators of IL-1 alpha, as well as endothelial and epithelial cells. By binding to the il1 receptor it is a major part in the immune response regulation. In the activation process of tumor necrosis factor-alpha the IL1A has a part as well, and has physiological, metabolic and hematopoietic activities.
Description
IL1AMouse Recombinant produced in Sf9 Baculovirus cells is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 165 amino acids (115-270a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 19.0kDa (Molecular size on SDS-PAGE will appear at approximately 18-28kDa). IL1A is expressed with a 9 amino acid His tag at C-Terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
