Conjugation ready
Our carrier-free antibodies are typically supplied in a PBS-only formulation, purified and free of BSA, sodium azide and glycerol. This conjugation-ready format is designed for use with fluorochromes, metal isotopes, oligonucleotides, and enzymes, which makes them ideal for antibody labelling, functional and cell-based assays, flow-based assays (e.g. mass cytometry) and Multiplex Imaging applications.

Use our conjugation kits for antibody conjugates that are ready-to-use in as little as 20 minutes with 1 minute hands-on-time and 100% antibody recovery: available for fluorescent dyes, HRP, biotin and gold.

Sandwich ELISA
The recommended antibody orientation is based on internal optimization for ELISA-based assays. Antibody orientation is assay dependent and needs to be optimized for each assay type. Please note that the range provided for this antibody is only an estimation based on the performance of the product using the recommended antibody pair. Performance of the antibody pair will depend on the specific characteristics of your assay. We guarantee the product works in sandwich ELISA, but we do not guarantee the sensitivity or dynamic range of the antibody in your assay.

Supplementary information

Interferon alpha 1 (IFN-α1) is a type I interferon with significant antiviral and immunomodulatory activities. Alternate names include interferon alpha and IFNA1. This protein weighs approximately 19 kDa and expresses predominantly in leukocytes. It interacts with specific cell surface receptors to initiate various protective mechanisms in the cell. Researchers often study IFN-alpha-1 protein using techniques like interferon alpha ELISA and IFN-α ELISA for its effective quantification in experimental analyses.
Biological function summary

Interferon alpha 1 functions as an important player in the immune response against viral infections. It belongs to a family of cytokines that signal through the JAK-STAT pathway to induce the expression of interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs). IFN-α1 operates independently and does not form large complexes with other proteins ensuring a focused response to pathogens. This protein's role is critical for the initiation of immune responses and limiting the spread of viruses within the host organism.

Pathways

Interferon alpha 1 activates intracellular signaling cascades mainly the JAK-STAT pathway and NF-κB pathway. These pathways have important roles in cellular defense mechanisms. In the JAK-STAT pathway IFN-α1 interacts closely with other interferons and cytokines to enhance antiviral states. Through these pathways it shares functional relationships with proteins such as STAT1 and IRF7 which are critical for mounting effective antiviral defenses.

Interferon alpha 1 relates closely to conditions like hepatitis C and multiple sclerosis. It has therapeutic applications in these diseases due to its immunoregulatory effects. IFN-α1 interacts with various immune system components including major histocompatibility complex (MHC) proteins to modulate immune responses. Abnormalities in IFN-α1 signaling or expression can exacerbate inflammatory and autoimmune disorders linking it to both protective and pathological roles in human health.
