Description
Description: IL34 produced in Sf9 Insect cells is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 231 amino acids (21-242a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 26.3kDa (Molecular size on SDS-PAGE will appear at approximately 28-40kDa). IL34 is expressed with an 9 amino acid His tag at C-Terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Introductions: Interleukin 34 (IL34) is a cytokine that promotes the differentiation and viability of monocytes and macrophages through the colony-stimulating factor-1 receptor and is a part of a group of cytokines called interleukins. IL34 increases growth or survival of immune cells known as monocytes. IL34 protein obtains its activity by binding the Colony stimulating factor 1 receptor. Interleukin 34 has also a potential part in viral infection, the adaptive immune response and bone marrow cell proliferation. Furthermore, IL34 plays an important role in innate immunity and in inflammatory processes
