Recombinant Human IFN-alpha A (alpha 2a) Protein Summary

Details of Functionality

Interferon was titrated with the use of the cytopathic effect inhibition assay as described:

Bovine (MDBK/VSV) – performed as described [Rubinstein, et al. (1981) J. Virol. 37(2):755]. The EC50 for interferon in this assay is ~5 U/ml. Lot Activity was derived from multiple determinations in the above assay.

Human (A549/EMCV) – performed as described [Budd, et al. (1985) Canc.Chem. Pharm. 12:39]. The EC50 for interferon in this assay is ~1 U/ml.

The units are determined by use of a Human IFN Alpha A (Hu-IFN- alpha A [2a]) laboratory standard calibrated to the international reference standard for human interferon alpha A (Hu-IFN- alpha A [2a]) provided by the National Institutes of Health [Meager, et al. (2001) J. Immunol Methods. 257 (1-2):17-33]. Please note that IFN assays vary between labs and assay systems [Meager, et al. (2001). J. Immunol. Meth. 257:17. Meager and Das (2005) J. Immunol. Meth. 306:1].

Background

Interferon-alpha (IFN-alpha), also known as leukocyte interferon, represents a group of related but distinct proteins that share over 95% amino acid sequence homology. They are members of the type I interferon family which share a common cell surface receptor composed of two subunits, a 100 kDa ligand-binding subunit (IFN-alpha R2) and a 125 kDa ligand binding and signal transduction subunit (IFN-alpha R1) that is involved both in ligand binding and signal transduction. IFN-alpha has both anti-viral and immunomodulatory activities on target cells.
