specificity :
Interferon gamma (IFN-gamma) Recombinant
purity :
>98% (SDS-PAGE and RP-HPLC analysis). Purified by chromatographic techniques. Product is sterile filtered.
form :
Purified, Lyophilized. Reconstitute using sterile deionized water to a concentration of >=100ug/ml. Further dilutions can be made in other aqueous buffers.
concentration :
1mg/ml (prior to lyophilization) (OD280nm, E^0.1% = 0.64)
storage stability :
The lyophilized product, though stable for 3 weeks at room temperature, is best stored at -20 degree C. After reconstitution, short term (up to 1 week) store at 2 to 8 degree C. Long-term, add 0.1% HSA or BSA, aliquot and store at -20 degree C.
app notes :
Specific activity as determined in a viral resistance assay is <=0.05ng/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of 2 x 10^7 IU/mg. Each laboratory should determine an optimum working titer for use in its particular application. Other applications have not been tested but use in such assays should not necessarily be excluded.

ncbi summary :
This gene encodes a member of the type II interferon family. The protein encoded is a soluble cytokine with antiviral, immunoregulatory and anti-tumor properties and is a potent activator of macrophages. Mutations in this gene are associated with aplastic anemia.
uniprot summary :
Function: Produced by lymphocytes activated by specific antigens or mitogens. IFN-gamma, in addition to having antiviral activity, has important immunoregulatory functions. It is a potent activator of macrophages, it has antiproliferative effects on transformed cells and it can potentiate the antiviral and antitumor effects of the type I interferons. Subunit structure: Homodimer. Subcellular location: Secreted. Tissue specificity: Released primarily from activated T lymphocytes. Post-translational modification: Proteolytic processing produces C-terminal heterogeneity, with proteins ending alternatively at Gly-150, Met-157 or Gly-161. Involvement in disease: In Caucasians, genetic variation in IFNG is associated with the risk of aplastic anemia (AA) [. MIM:609135]. AA is a rare disease in which the reduction of the circulating blood cells results from damage to the stem cell pool in bone marrow. In most patients, the stem cell lesion is caused by an autoimmune attack. T-lymphocytes, activated by an endogenous or exogenous, and most often unknown antigenic stimulus, secrete cytokines, including IFN-gamma, which would in turn be able to suppress hematopoiesis. Pharmaceutical use: Available under the name Actimmune (Genentech). Used for reducing the frequency and severity of serious infections associated with chronic granulomatous disease (CGD). Sequence similarities: Belongs to the type II (or gamma) interferon family.
