other info1 :
Protein Type: Recombinant. Biological Significance: Interferons (IFNs) are proteins made and released by lymphocytes in response to the presence of pathogens-such as viruses, bacteria, or parasites-or tumor cells. They allow communication between cells to trigger the protective defenses of the immune system that eradicate pathogens or tumors. Bioactivity: The EC50 for interferon in a cytopathic effect inhibition assay is ~1 U/ml (Human), ~5 U/ml (Bovine) and ~200 U/ml (Rhesus). Endotoxin Levels: <1 EU/ug

ncbi summary :
This gene is a member of the alpha interferon gene cluster on chromosome 9. The encoded protein is a cytokine produced in response to viral infection. Use of the recombinant form of this protein has been shown to be effective in reducing the symptoms and duration of the common cold. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2011]
