- SourceHuman IFNAR2, Fc Tag (IF2-H5255) is expressed from human 293 cells (HEK293). It contains AA Ile 27 - Lys 243 (Accession # P48551-2).Predicted N-terminus: Ile 27Request for sequence
- Molecular Characterization
This protein carries a human IgG1 Fc tag at the C-terminus.
The protein has a calculated MW of 51.4 kDa. The protein migrates as 66-90kDa under reducing (R) condition (SDS-PAGE) due to glycosylation.
- EndotoxinLess than 1.0 EU per μg by the LAL method.
- Purity
>95% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
- Formulation
Lyophilized from 0.22 μm filtered solution in Tris with Glycine, Arginine and NaCl, pH7.5. Normally trehalose is added as protectant before lyophilization.

- BackgroundInterferon alpha/beta receptor 2 (IFNAR2) is also known as IFN-alpha binding protein, IFN-alpha/beta receptor 2, Type I interferon receptor 2, IFNABR and IFNARB, which is a single-pass type I membrane protein and belongs to the type II cytokine receptor family. IFNAR2 can associate with IFNAR1 to form the type I interferon receptor. IFNAR2 is a receptor for interferons alpha and beta.IFNAR2 involves in IFN-mediated STAT1, STAT2 and STAT3 activation. Isoform 1 and isoform 2 of IFNAR2 are directly involved in signal transduction due to their association with the TYR kinase, JAK1. Isoform 3 of IFNAR2 is a potent inhibitor of type I IFN receptor activity.Genetic variations in IFNAR2 influence susceptibility to hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection.
