  • Description
    Subunit beta of interleukin 12 (also known as natural killer cell stimulatory factor 2, or cytotoxic lymphocyte maturation factor 2, p40) (IL12B) is a subunit of human interleukin 12. IL12B/IL-12B is a cytokine that acts on T and natural killer cells, and has a broad array of biological activities. Interleukin 12 is a disulfide-linked heterodimer composed of the 40 kD cytokine receptor like subunit encoded by this gene, and a 35 kD subunit encoded by IL12A. IL12B/IL-12B is expressed by activated macrophages that serve as an essential inducer of Th1 cells development. This cytokine has been found to be important for sustaining a sufficient number of memory/effector Th1 cells to mediate long-term protection to an intracellular pathogen. Overexpression of this gene was observed in the central nervous system of patients with multiple sclerosis (MS), suggesting a role of this cytokine in the pathogenesis of the disease. The promoter polymorphism of this gene has been reported to be associated with the severity of atopic and non-atopic asthma in children. IL12B/IL-12B associates with IL23A to form the IL-23 interleukin, an heterodimeric cytokine which functions in innate and adaptive immunity.

  • Gene Name
    Il12b
  • Source/Expression Host
    Human Cells
  • Expression Plasmid/cDNA
    A DNA sequence encoding the mouse IL12B (P43432) (Met 1-Ser 335) was fused with the Fc region of human IgG1 at the C-terminus.
  • Protein Species
    Mouse
  • Molecular weight
    The secreted recombinant mouse IL12B/Fc is a disulfide-linked homodimer. The reduced monomer comprises 554 amino acids and has a calculated molecular mass of 62.8 kDa. As a result of glycosylation, the apparent molecular mass of the monomer is approximately 83 kDa in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions.
  • Purity
    > 90 % as determined by SDS-PAGE
  • Activity
    1. Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA.
    2. Immobilized mouse IL12B-Fc at 10μg/mL (100μL/well) can bind biotinylated human IL12RB1-His (Cat:501974).
    The EC50 of biotinylated human IL12RB1-His (Cat:501974) is 0.10-0.24μg/mL.
