Recombinant Mouse Interleukin-21/IL-21 Protein (RPES1745)

Mouse Interleukin-21/IL-21 Recombinant Protein (RPES1745) is a highly pure recombinant protein developed by Assay Genie for use in a range of applications Protein function: Cytokine with immunoregulatory activity. May promote the transition between innate and adaptive immunity. Induces the production of IgG(1) and IgG(3) in B-cells (PubMed:15100251). Implicated in the generation and maintenance of T follicular helper (Tfh) cells and the formation of germinal-centers. Together with IL6, control the early generation of Tfh cells and are critical for an effective antibody response to acute viral infection (PubMed:23045607). May play a role in proliferation and maturation of natural killer (NK) cells in synergy with IL15 (PubMed:11970879). May regulate proliferation of mature B- and T-cells in response to activating stimuli. In synergy with IL15 and IL18 stimulates interferon gamma production in T-cells and NK cells. During T-cell mediated immune response may inhibit dendritic cells (DC) activation and maturation (PubMed:12893770). [The UniProt Consortium]
