Description

Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) is a cytokine that binds to TNFRSF1A/TNFR1 and TNFRSF1B/TNFBR. TNF is secreted by macrophages, monocytes, neutrophils, T-cells, and NK-cells following their stimulation by bacterial LPS. Cells expressing CD4 secrete TNF-alpha while CD8 cells secrete little or no TNF-alpha. The synthesis of TNF-alpha is induced by many different stimuli including interferons, IL2, GM-CSF. It is a potent pyrogen causing fever by direct action or by stimulation of interleukin-1 secretion and is implicated in the induction of cachexia. Recombinant rat TNF-alpha produced in E. coli is a single non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 157 amino acids with a MW of 17,339.44 Da.

Source

E. coli. Endotoxin level as measured by LAL is <0.01ng/ug or <0.1EU/ug.

Purity

Purity > 95% as determined by RP-HPLC and reducing and non-reducing SDS-PAGE. Protein Content determined by UV spectroscopy at 280 nm and analysis by RP-HPLC calibrated against a known standard. Quantitation on SDS-PAGE against a known standard.

Application Notes

Rat TNF-alpha is fully biologically active when compared to standard. The ED50 as determined by the cytolysis of mouse L929 cells in the presence of Actinomycin D is < 0.05ng/ml.

Storage

Store at -20°C. Product is guaranteed one year from the date of shipment. Following reconstitution, store at -20°C. We recommend to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA) for long term storage.
