蛋白名称
Interferon alpha-2 (IFN-alpha-2) (Interferon alpha-A) (LeIF A)
免疫原
Synthesized peptide derived from part region of human protein
特异性
IFNA2 Monoclonal Antibody detects endogenous levels of protein.
组成
Liquid in PBS containing 50% glycerol, and 0.02% sodium azide.
纯化工艺
The antibody was affinity-purified from mouse antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen.
背景
This gene is a member of the alpha interferon gene cluster on chromosome 9. The encoded protein is a cytokine produced in response to viral infection. Use of the recombinant form of this protein has been shown to be effective in reducing the symptoms and duration of the common cold. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2011],
功能
function:Produced by macrophages, IFN-alpha have antiviral activities. Interferon stimulates the production of two enzymes: a protein kinase and an oligoadenylate synthetase.,pharmaceutical:Available under the names Roferon-A (Roche) or Intron-A (Schering-Plough). Used as an anticancer drug for its antiproliferative activity.,polymorphism:Three forms exist; alpha-2a (shown here), alpha-2b and alpha-2c.,similarity:Belongs to the alpha/beta interferon family.,
