Human IL-23A&IL-12B Heterodimer Protein, premium grade (ILB-H5219) is expressed from human 293 cells (HEK293). It contains AA Ile 23 - Ser 328 (IL-12B) & Arg 20 - Pro 189 (IL-23A) (Accession # P29460-1 (IL-12B) & Q9NPF7-1 (IL-23A)).
Predicted N-terminus: Ile 23
It is produced under our rigorous quality control system that incorporates a comprehensive set of tests including sterility and endotoxin tests. Product performance is carefully validated and tested for compatibility for cell culture use or any other applications in the early preclinical stage. When ready to transition into later clinical phases, we also offer a custom GMP protein service that tailors to your needs. We will work with you to customize and develop a GMP-grade product in accordance with your requests that also meets the requirements for raw and ancillary materials use in cell manufacturing of cell-based therapies.
Molecular Characterization
This protein carries no "tag".
The protein has a calculated MW of 55.0 kDa. The protein migrates as 58 kDa±3 kDa under reducing (R) condition, and 58 kDa when calibrated against Star Ribbon Pre-stained Protein Marker under non-reducing (NR) condition (SDS-PAGE) due to glycosylation.
Endotoxin
Less than 0.1 EU per μg by the LAL method / rFC method.
Sterility
Negative
Mycoplasma
Negative
Purity
>95% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
Formulation
Lyophilized from 0.22 μm filtered solution in PBS, pH7.4 with trehalose as protectant.

Reconstitution
Please see Certificate of Analysis for specific instructions.
For best performance, we strongly recommend you to follow the reconstitution protocol provided in the CoA.
Storage
For long term storage, the product should be stored at lyophilized state at -20°C or lower.
Please avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
This product is stable after storage at:
-20°C to -70°C for 24 months in lyophilized state;
-70°C for 3 months under sterile conditions after reconstitution.
Background
Interleukin-23 subunit alpha (IL-23 alpha) can associates with IL12B to form the IL-23 interleukin, a heterodimeric cytokine which functions in innate and adaptive immunity. IL-23 may constitute with IL-17 an acute response to infection in peripheral tissues. IL-23 binds to a heterodimeric receptor complex composed of IL12RB1 and IL23R, activates the Jak-Stat signaling cascade, stimulates memory rather than naive T-cells and promotes production of proinflammatory cytokines. IL-23 induces autoimmune inflammation and thus may be responsible for autoimmune inflammatory diseases and may be important for tumorigenesis.
