Anti-Interferon alpha 1(2.52), Biotin conjugate, 0.1mg/mL

This MAb is specific for human interferon alpha 1 and does not cross react with human interferon alpha 2. Interferons are widely used therapeutic agents because of their anti-tumor and anti-viral effects and because of their modulatory effects on the immune system. These cytokines produce their effects by binding to the Type 1 Interferon- & Receptor (IFNAR1). Down regulation of this receptor plays a key role in determining the magnitude and duration of cytokine signaling. This down regulation is influenced by phosphorylation of Serine 535 and 539 in the IFNAR1.Primary antibodies are available purified, or with a selection of fluorescent CF(R) Dyes and other labels. CF(R) Dyes offer exceptional brightness and photostability. Note: Conjugates of blue fluorescent dyes like CF(R)405S and CF(R)405M are not recommended for detecting low abundance targets, because blue dyes have lower fluorescence and can give higher non-specific background than other dye colors. Concentration: 0.1 mg/mL Storage buffer: PBS, 0.1% BSA, 0.05% azide
