Specifications

Our Abpromise guarantee covers the use of ab167742 in the following tested applications.

The application notes include recommended starting dilutions; optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

  • Applications

    Functional Studies

    SDS-PAGE

  • Form

    Lyophilized
  • Concentration information loading...

Preparation and Storage

  • Stability and Storage

    Shipped at 4°C. Store at +4°C short term (1-2 weeks). Upon delivery aliquot. Store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid freeze / thaw cycle.

    pH: 7.40
    Constituents: 94% PBS, 5% Trehalose

    This product is an active protein and may elicit a biological response in vivo, handle with caution.

  • Reconstitution
    It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized protein in sterile deionized water to a final concentration of 250 µg/ml. Solubilize for 30 to 60 minutes at room temperature with occasional gentle mixing. Carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA) is strongly recommended for further dilution and long term storage.

  • Function

    Part of the receptor for interleukin 6. Binds to IL6 with low affinity, but does not transduce a signal. Signal activation necessitate an association with IL6ST. Activation may lead to the regulation of the immune response, acute-phase reactions and hematopoiesis.
    Low concentration of a soluble form of IL6 receptor acts as an agonist of IL6 activity.
  • Tissue specificity

    Isoform 2 is expressed in peripheral blood mononuclear cells and weakly found in urine and serum.
  • Sequence similarities

    Belongs to the type I cytokine receptor family. Type 3 subfamily.
    Contains 1 fibronectin type-III domain.
    Contains 1 Ig-like C2-type (immunoglobulin-like) domain.
  • Domain

    The two fibronectin type-III-like domains, contained in the N-terminal part, form together a cytokine-binding domain.
    The WSXWS motif appears to be necessary for proper protein folding and thereby efficient intracellular transport and cell-surface receptor binding.
  • Post-translational
    modifications

    A short soluble form may also be released from the membrane by proteolysis.
  • Cellular localization

    Secreted and Basolateral cell membrane.
  • Target information above from: UniProt accession P08887 The UniProt Consortium
    The Universal Protein Resource (UniProt) in 2010
    Nucleic Acids Res. 38:D142-D148 (2010) .
