Target description

Interleukin-17A (UniProt: Q62386; also known as IL-17, IL-17A, Cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated antigen 8, CTLA-8) is encoded by the Il17A (also known as Ctla8, Il17) gene (Gene ID: 16171) in murine species. IL-17A is a homodimeric, proinflammatory cytokine that is synthesized with a signal peptide (aa 1-25) that is subsequently cleaved off to produce the mature protein. It is expressed by Th17 cell lineage, and its expression is observed in innate lymphoid cells, T cell subsets, and invariant natural killer (iNKT) cells. It is induced upon differentiation of CD4+ T cells toward Th17 effector cells upon antigen receptor binding in the presence of IL6 and TGF-β1. Its levels are also up-regulated by proinflammatory cytokines in response to microbes in various immune cells. IL-17A actions are mediated via interaction with IL-17RA and IL-17RC heterodimeric receptor complex, triggering homotypic interaction of these receptors with TRAF3 Interacting Protein 2 (TRAF3IP2) adapter. This leads to downstream TRAF6-mediated activation of NF-kB and MAP kinase pathways resulting in transcriptional activation of cytokines, chemokines, antimicrobial peptides, and matrix metalloproteinases. IL-17A plays an important role in connecting T cell-mediated adaptive immunity and acute inflammatory response to destroy extracellular bacteria and fungi. It plays important roles in multiple biological processes, including the induction of IL-6, IL-8, G-CSF, and PGE2 production in epithelial, endothelial or fibroblasts; the enhancement of surface expression of ICAM-1 in fibroblasts; activation of NF- kB and co-stimulation of T cell proliferation. This ZooMAb^® recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.

Physical form

Purified recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody IgG, lyophilized in PBS, 5% Trehalose, normal appearance a coarse or translucent resin. The PBS/trehalose components in the ZooMAb formulation can have the appearance of a semi-solid (bead like gel) after lyophilization. This is a normal phenomenon. Please follow the recommended reconstitution procedure in the data sheet to dissolve the semi-solid, bead-like, gel-appearing material. The resulting antibody solution is completely stable and functional as proven by full functional testing. Contains no biocide or preservatives, such as azide, or any animal by-products. Larger pack sizes provided as multiples of 25 μL.

Reconstitution

300 μg/mL after reconstitution at 25 μL per vial. Please refer to guidance on suggested starting dilutions and/or titers per application and sample type.

Storage and Stability

Recommend storage of lyophilized product at 2-8°C; Before reconstitution, micro-centrifuge vials briefly to spin down material to bottom of the vial; Reconstitute each vial by adding 25 μL of filtered lab grade water or PBS; Reconstituted antibodies can be stored at 2-8°C, or -20°C for long term storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaws.
