Recombinant Human Interferon a-1/13 (C-6His)

Source: Human Cells. MW :20.4kD. Recombinant Human Interferon alpha-1 is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Cys24-Glu189 is expressed with a 6His tag at the C-terminus. Interferon alpha-1/13(IFN-alpha-1/13 for short), also known as Interferon alpha-D, is a secreted protein which belongs to the alpha/beta interferon family. It is produced by macrophages. IFN-alpha have antiviral activities. Interferon stimulates the production of two enzymes: a protein kinase and an oligoadenylate synthetase. IFN-alpha exerts a variety of other biological effects, including antitumor and immunomodulatory activities and are increasingly used clinically to treat a range of malignancies, myelodysplasias and autoimmune diseases. Protein function: Produced by macrophages, IFN-alpha have antiviral activities. Interferon stimulates the production of two enzymes: a protein kinase and an oligoadenylate synthetase.
