Biological activity: Measured by its ability to inhibit IL-17 induced IL-6 secretion by NIH-3T3 mouse embryonic fibroblast cells. The ED50 for this effect is typically 0.01-0.1 µg/mL in the presence of 10 ng/mL recombinant human IL-17.

Results: Measured by its ability to inhibit IL-17 induced IL-6 secretion by NIH-3T3 mouse embryonic fibroblast cells. The ED50 for this effect is typically 0.01-0.1 µg/mL in the presence of 10 ng/mL recombinant human IL-17.

Binding Capacity: N/A

Unit Definition: N/A

Molecular Weight: This protein is fused with 6×His tag at the C-terminus, has a calculated MW of 34.3 kDa. The predicted N-terminus is Leu 33. DTT-reduced Protein migrates as 55-60 kDa due to glycosylation.

Concentration: N/A

Appearance: Lyophilized

Physical form description: Lyophilized from 0.22 μm filtered solution in PBS, pH7.4. Normally Mannitol or Trehalose is added as protectants before lyophilization.

Reconstitution Instructions: Centrifuge the vial prior to opening. Reconstitute in sterile PBS, pH 7.4 to a concentration of 50 µg/ml. Do not vortex. This solution can be stored at 2-8°C for up to 1 month. For extended storage, it is recommended to store at -20°C.

Background Information: Interleukin 17 receptor A (IL17RA), also known as cluster of differentiation w217 (CDw217), is a pro-inflammatory cytokine secreted by activated T-lymphocytes, belong to ubiquitous type I membrane glycoprotein, and binds with low affinity to interleukin 17A (IL17A). IL 17R mRNA exhibits a broad tissue distribution, and has been detected in virtually all cells and tissues tested. IL 17RA associates with IL 17RC to form a signaling receptor complex for IL17 and IL17F. Ligand and IL 17RA ligation promotes T cell activation and the production of IL - 6, G-CSF, SCF, and multiple pro-inflammatory chemokines. Defects in IL17RA are the cause of familial candidiasis type 5 (CANDF5).

Amino acid sequence: N/A

Handling: Centrifuge the vial prior to opening.
