Description
Interleukin 10 or IL-10 or human cytokine synthesis inhibitory factor, is a cytokine (anti-inflammatory). IL10 gene is coding for il-10 In humans. Interleukin 10 has a receptor complex that is built from a couple of IL-10 receptor-1 and a couple of IL-10 receptor-2 proteins. therfore, the whole receptor unit consists of four IL-10 receptor molecules. IL-10 binds the receptor and causes STAT3 signalling through the phosphorylation of the cytoplasmic ends of IL-10 receptor 1 and IL-10 receptor 2 through JAK1 and Tyk2.
IL-10 Human produced in Sf9 Baculovirus cells is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 166 amino acids (19-178 aa) and having a molecular mass of 19.4kDa. IL-10 is fused to a 6 amino acid His tag at C-terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques
