Scientific Data Images for Human IFN-beta Antibody

Neutralization of IFN beta Anti-Viral Activity by Human IFN beta Antibody

Recombinant Human IFN beta ( 8499-IF) exhibits anti-viral activity in HeLa human cervical epithelial carcinoma cells infected with encephalomyocarditis (EMC). Inhibition of anti-viral activity elicited by Recombinant Human IFN beta (50 pg/mL) is neutralized by Human IFN beta Antibody (Catalog # MAB11127). The ND50 for this effect is typically 2.00-20.0 µg/mL.

Applications for Human IFN-beta Antibody

Application
Recommended Usage

Neutralization

Measured by its ability to neutralize IFN‑ beta inhibition of EMCV-induced cytopathy in the HeLa human cervical epithelial carcinoma cell line. Meager, A. (1987) in Lymphokines and Interferons, a Practical Approach. Clemens, M.J. et al. (eds): IRL Press. 129. The Neutralization Dose (ND50) is typically 2-20 µg/mL in the presence of 50 pg/mL Recombinant Human IFN‑ beta.
Please Note: Optimal dilutions of this antibody should be experimentally determined.

Background: IFN-beta

IFN-beta (interferon beta; also fibroblast IFN) is a secreted, monomeric 23-24 kDa member of the alpha/beta interferon family of molecules. It can be produced by almost all cell types in response to bacterial DNA or viral double-stranded RNA and is abundantly secreted by circulating plasmacytoid DCs. IFN-beta drives monocytic transformation into DCs, and it appears to stimulate a B cell switch from from IgM to IgG secretion. Mature human IFN-beta is 166 amino acids (aa) in length (aa 22-187) and contains one phosphorylation site at Ser140. There is one potential alternative start site at Met22. Full-length human IFN-beta (aa 22-187) shares 47% aa identity with mouse IFN-beta.
