Background

IL-17F is a homodimeric protein that is a member of the IL17 family of cytokines produced by activated T-cells and monocytes.1 IL-17F is expressed by activated T cells and can stimulate production of other cytokines such as IL-6, IL-8 and granulocyte colony-stimulating factor, and can regulate cartilage matrix turnover.2 IL-17F is an important regulator of inflammatory responses that function differently than IL-17 in immune responses and diseases.3

Protein Details

Purity
>97% by SDS Page and analyzed by silver stain.
Endotoxin Level
<1.0 EU/µg as determined by the LAL method
Biological Activity
The biological activity of Human IL-17F was determined by its ability to bind mIL-17 RC in a functional ELISA with an estimated KD < 3 nM.
