Product Specs

Introduction
Interleukin-21 isoform 1 (IL21) is a T helper cytokine that regulates immune responses, haematopoiesis, and cell-mediated responses. IL21 plays a crucial role in lymphocyte development through its involvement in haematopoiesis and immune response regulation. T cell activation triggers IL21 production, which is important for the persistence of viral infections.
Description
Recombinant Canine IL21, produced in E. coli, is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain comprising 130 amino acids (18-146a.a.) with a molecular weight of 15kDa.
Physical Appearance
Sterile Filtered colorless solution.
Formulation
IL21 protein solution (0.5mg/ml) in Phosphate-Buffered Saline (pH 7.4).
Stability
Store at 4°C if the entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks. For longer storage, freeze at -20°C. Adding a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA) is recommended for long-term storage. Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles.

Product Science Overview

Structure and Production

Recombinant Canine IL-21 is produced using Escherichia coli (E. coli) as the expression host. The recombinant protein typically includes an N-terminal methionine and spans from His18 to Ser146 . The molecular mass of the recombinant canine IL-21 is approximately 15 kDa, and it is purified to a high degree, often exceeding 95% purity as determined by SDS-PAGE .

Biological Activity

IL-21 has significant immunoregulatory activity. It enhances the secretion of interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) in NK-92 human natural killer lymphoma cells, with an effective dose (ED50) of around 8 ng/mL . This cytokine is involved in the proliferation and differentiation of T cells, B cells, and NK cells, making it a critical component in both innate and adaptive immunity .

Applications

Recombinant Canine IL-21 is used in various research applications, including:

  • Immunology studies: Understanding the role of IL-21 in immune responses.
  • Cancer research: Investigating its potential in enhancing anti-tumor immunity.
  • Allergy research: Exploring its effects on allergic responses and inflammation .
Storage and Stability

The recombinant protein is typically lyophilized and can be reconstituted in PBS (phosphate-buffered saline). It is stable for up to 12 months when stored at -20°C to -70°C. After reconstitution, it should be stored under sterile conditions at 2°C to 8°C for up to one month or at -20°C to -70°C for up to three months .
