Background: The genes encoding type I interferons (IFNs), which include 14 IFN-α genes, 1 IFN-β gene, 1 IFN-ω (also known as IFN-α II1) gene, and a number of IFN-ω pseudogenes, are clustered on human chromosome 9. Interferons-α and -β are cytokines that are widely known to induce potent anti-viral activity. IFN-α and -β exert a variety of other biological effects, including anti-tumor and immunomodulatory activities and are increasingly used clinically to treat a range of malignancies, myelodysplasias and autoimmune diseases. IFN-ω is antigenically different from human IFN-α, IFN-β or IFN-γ, but is a component of natural mixtures of IFN species produced by virus-induced leukocytes or Burkitt's lymphoma cells. The Type I interferon receptor (IFN-αR) interacts with IFN-α, IFN-β and IFN-ω, and seems to be a multisubunit receptor.

Purification and Purity: The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen and the purity is > 95% (by SDS-PAGE).

Storage and Stability: Store at 4°C short term. Aliquot and store at -20°C long term. Avoid freeze-thaw cycles.

Specificity: IFN-ω polyclonal antibody detects endogenous levels of IFN-ω protein.

Bioworld Molecular Weight: ~ 20 kDa
