EBI3 Human, His

Interleukin-27 subunit beta, IL-27 subunit beta, IL-27B, Epstein-Barr virus-induced gene 3 protein, EBV-induced gene 3 protein, EBI3, IL27B.

EBI3 has an induced expression in B lymphocytes in reaction to Epstein-Barr virus infection. EBI3 encodes a secreted glycoprotein belonging to the hematopoietin receptor family, and heterodimerizes with a 28 kDa protein to form iIL-27. EBI3 drives rapid clonal expansion of naive cd4(+) t-cells. EBI3 strongly synergizes with IL-12 to activate IFN-gamma production of naive cd4(+) t-cells. EBI3 mediates its biologic effects through the cytokine receptor wsx-1/tccr.

EBI3 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, Polypeptide chain containing 209 amino acids fragment (21-229) having a molecular weight of 34kDa and fused with a 4.5kDa amino-terminal hexahistidine tag.
The EBI3 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
