Uniprot ID: P41324

Amino Acid Sequence: AVLSRVSSEL RCQCIKTHST PFHPKYIKEL RVIDSGPHCE NSEIIVKLFN GNEVCLDPKE KWVQKVVQIF LKKAEKQDP

This lyophilized preparation is stable for 12 months from date of receipt at -20 to -70 degrees C, preferably desiccated. Upon reconstitution, the preparation can be stored for 1 month at 2-8 degrees C under sterile conditions, and for 3 months at -20 degrees C to -70 degrees C. Use a manual defrost freezer and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Stock solutions should be aliquoted and stored at < -20 degrees C. Further dilutions should be made in appropriate buffered solutions

Purity

>95%, by SDS-PAGE and HPLC

Endotoxin Level

Less than 1 EU/ug of CXCL8/IL-8 as determined by LAL method.

Predicted Molecular Mass

9.1 kDa.
Disclaimer note: The observed molecular weight of the protein may vary from the listed predicted molecular weight due to post translational modifications, post translation cleavages, relative charges, and other experimental factors.

Activity

IL8 protein is fully biologically active when compared to standard. The biological activity determined by a chemotaxis bioassay using human CXCR2 transfected murine BaF3 cells is in a concentration range of 0.15-0.75 ng/ml.

Background: IL-8/CXCL8

Interleukin-8 (IL-8) is encoded by the IL8 gene and produced by macrophages and other cell types such as epithelial cells. It is also synthesized by endothelial cells, which store IL-8 in their storage vesicles. There are many receptors capable to bind IL-8, the most affinity to IL-8 are receptors CXCR1, and CXCR2. As a member of the CXC chemokine family, function of IL-8 is the induction of chemotaxis in its target cells, like neutrophil granulocytes, basophils, and T-cells. IL-8 is often associated with inflammation and has been cited as a proinflammatory mediator in gingivitis and psoriasis.
