Recombinant Human IFN-lambda 4 Protein, CF Summary
Product Specifications
Ala23-Leu179 with an N-terminal Met
Analysis
Product Datasheets
Carrier Free
CF stands for Carrier Free (CF). We typically add Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) as a carrier protein to our recombinant proteins. Adding a carrier protein enhances protein stability, increases shelf-life, and allows the recombinant protein to be stored at a more dilute concentration. The carrier free version does not contain BSA.
In general, we advise purchasing the recombinant protein with BSA for use in cell or tissue culture, or as an ELISA standard. In contrast, the carrier free protein is recommended for applications, in which the presence of BSA could interfere.

Background: IFN-lambda 4
Interferon-lambda 4 (IFN-lambda 4) is a secreted, approximately 17 kDa member of the type III interferon family of molecules (1). It is generated by a frameshift mutation based on a TT > ∆G polymorphism (2). The TT allele inactivates expression of IFN-lambda 4 (2). The ∆G allele is associated with reduced clearance of hepatitis C virus and reduced degranulation of CTL, NK, and NKT cells in the liver during hepatitis (2, 3), although IFN- lambda 4 itself shows in vitro activity against hepatitis C virus (4). IFN-lambda 4 is expressed in the liver of some chronic hepatitis C patients (5). It signals through a receptor complex containing IL-28 R/IFN-lambda R1 and IL-10 R beta to induce the expression of several interferon stimulated genes (ISG) (2, 4). Alternative splicing generates additional isoforms with large internal deletions or a substituted C-terminal region.
