Product name | Human IL-13 protein |
Sequence | Amino acid sequence derived from human IL-13 (AAK53823.1) (Met 1-Asn 132) was expressed and purified. |
Activity | Measured in a cell proliferation assay using TF1 human erythroleukemic cells (Kitamura, T. et al. 1989, J. Cell Physiol. 140:323.). The ED50 for this effect is typically 0.5-3 ng/mL. |
Protein length | The recombinant human IL-13 consists of 112 amino acids and migrates as an approximately 12.5 kDa band in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions as predicted. |
Preparation method | CHO Stable Cells |
Purity | > 92 % as determined by SDS-PAGE |
Alternative | ALRH; IL-13; P600; Interleukin-13; IL13 |
Formulation | Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4 |
Molecular weight | 12.5 kDa |
Usage notes | Always centrifuge tubes before opening. It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Human IL13 protein in sterile ddH2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions. |
Storage instructions | Lyophilized Human IL-13 proteinshould be stored desiccated below -20°C. Upon reconstitution, the protein should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -20°C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.41% HSA or BSA). Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
Shipping | The product is shipped at ambient temperature. |

Background | Interleukin 13 (IL-13) is a single-chain glycosylated polypeptide, which belongs to the IL-13/IL-4 family. IL-13 protein is secreted by many cell types, but especially by T helper type 2 (Th2) cells. IL-13 exerts its effects through a multi-subunit receptor comprising the α chain of the IL-4 receptor (IL-4Rα) and at least one of two known IL-13-specific binding chains (IL-13 Rα1 and IL-13 Rα2). As a cytokine, IL-13 protein is critical in regulating inflammatory, immune responses and diseases. In addition, it inhibits the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines, and thus down-regulates macrophage activity. IL-13 protein and antibody is more importantly implicated as a central mediator of immunoregulatory processes in various cell types. |
