products description :
Mouse anti Bovine interleukin-4, clone CC313 is specific for bovine interleukin 4 (IL-4), also known as B-cell stimulatory factor 1. Bovine interleukin-4 is a 15kDa, 135 amino acid peptide which is processed to a mature secreted form with the cleavage of a 24 amino acid, N-terminal signal peptide resulting in a 12.6kDa active cytokine, the apparent Mw may be altered by glycosylation (Heussler et al. 1992). IL-4 is expressed by a range of cells including T and B cells, macrophages and monocytes. It plays an important role in the regulation of bovine T and B cell responses. Mouse anti Bovine interleukin-4, clone CC313 has been used successfully as a coating antibody in a sandwich ELISA with Clone CC314 as a detection reagent both with bovine (Stabel et al. 2011) and ovine samples (Olivier et al. 2012). Clones CC313 and CC314 have been used in the reverse configuration for the measurement of interleukin-4 in caprine samples (Marinaro et al. 2012).

uniprot summary :
Participates in at least several B-cell activation processes as well as of other cell types. It is a costimulator of DNA-synthesis. It induces the expression of class II MHC molecules on resting B-cells. It enhances both secretion and cell surface expression of IgE and IgG1. It also regulates the expression of the low affinity Fc receptor for IgE (CD23) on both lymphocytes and monocytes. Positively regulates IL31RA expression in macrophages.
