Application: | Interferon-γ, mouse (mIFN-γ) has been used in cell culture. |
Application: | Recombinant mouse interferon-γ is a valuable tool for the study of IFN-γ (interferon-γ) actions in mouse model systems. |
Biochem/physiol Actions: | Interferon-γ (IFNγ) participates in cell-mediated immunity and has pro-inflammatory effects on immunocytes and target tissue. Its functions vary and is tissue specific. IFNγ induces T-cell-mediated immune response by increasing MHC-I expression on target cells and acts through IFNγ receptor, which is expressed on both immune and non-immune cells. IFNγ is associated with the development of colitis and Sjögren Syndrome. |
General description: | IFN-γ (interferon-γ) is produced by natural killer T cells, macrophages, Th1 CD4 T cells and activated CD8 T cells and the production increases with age. |
General description: | Recombinant, Interferon-γ, mouse (mlFN-γ) is produced in E. coli and purified by standard chromatographic techniques. Primary structure: One polypeptide chain (131 amino acids) identical to mouse, natural IFN- ? (133 amino acids), but lacking the last two amino acids at the carboxy-terminus and not glycosylated. Glycosylation is not essential for biological activity. |
Other Notes: | For life science research only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures. |

Sequence: | Chain Length 131 AA |
Sequence: | The primary structure of recombinant Interferon-γ, mouse (mIFN-γ) is identical to that of natural, mouse IFN-γ (one polypeptide chain, 131 amino acids), however, recombinant mIFN-γ lacks the last two amino acids at the C-terminus and is not glycosylated. Glycosylation is not essential for biological activity. |
Specificity: | Species specificity: mouse |
Unit Definition: | EC 50 definition : The amount of mIFN- γ that is required to produce equivalent antiviral activity to that expressed by 1 unit of the NIH IFN-γ reference standard (Gg 02–901-533) (L cells-EMC virus/cytopathic effect) (1 unit equals =0.2 ng/ml). |
