Description: This MAb is specific for human interferon alpha 1 and does not cross react with human interferon alpha 2. Interferons are widely used therapeutic agents because of their anti-tumor and anti-viral effects and because of their modulatory effects on the immune system. These cytokines produce their effects by binding to the Type 1 Interferon- Receptor (IFNAR1). Down regulation of this receptor plays a key role in determining the magnitude and duration of cytokine signaling. This down regulation is influenced by phosphorylation of Serine 535 and 539 in the IFNAR1.Produced by macrophages, IFN-alphas have antiviral activities. Interferon stimulates the production of two enzymes: a protein kinase and an oligoadenylate synthetase

Immunogen: Recombinant human IFNA1 protein was used as the immunogen for the Interferon alpha 1 antibody.

Storage: Aliquot the Interferon alpha 1 antibody and store frozen at -20 °C or colder. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
