IFN- gamma Protein, Human Recombinant

IFN- gamma Protein, Human Recombinant Animal Free The Interferon gamma (or IFN-gamma protein) is an acid-labile interferon produced by CD4 & CD8 T lymphocytes as well as activated NK cells. Manufactured using all non-animal reagents. Interferon gamma (IFN-gamma) is an acid-labile interferon produced by CD4 and CD8 T lymphocytes as well as activated NK cells. IFN-gamma receptors are present in most immune cells, which respond to IFN-gamma signaling by increasing the surface expression of class I MHC proteins. This promotes the presentation of antigen to T-helper (CD4+) cells. IFN-gamma signaling in antigen-presenting cells and antigen-recognizing B and T lymphocytes regulate the antigen-specific phases of the immune response. Additionally, IFN-gamma stimulates a number of lymphoid cell functions including the anti-microbial and anti-tumor responses of macrophages, NK cells, and neutrophils. Human IFN-gamma species-specific and is biologically active only in human and primate cells. Recombinant human IFN-gamma is a 16.7 kDa protein containing 143 amino acid residues.
