Description
Human IL-6/Interleukin-6 Recombinant Protein
Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a multifunctional alpha helical cytokine that controls cell growth and differentiation of a wide range of tissues, particularly the immune response and acute phase reactions. The IL-6 protein is produced in various cell types, including T cells and macrophages, as a phosphorylated and glycosylated molecule that varies in length. IL-6 exerts actions through the its heterodimeric receptor composed of IL-6R that lacks the tyrosine/kinase domain and binds IL-6 with low affinity, and ubiquitously expressed glycoprotein 130 (gp130) that binds the IL-6. IL-6R complex with high affinity and thus transduces signals. IL-6 is involved in a wide range of processes including hematopoiesis, bone metabolism, and cancer progression. It has been characterized as an important component in the switch from innate to acquired immunity. Human IL-6/Interleukin-6 Recombinant Protein is a highly pure recombinant protein developed by Assay Genie for use in a range of applications.
