Tag	His Tag (C-term)
Predicted MW	The protein has a calculated MW of 35.64 kDa. The protein migrates as 45 kDa under reducing condition (SDS-PAGE analysis).
Purity	>98% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
Buffer	The protein was lyophilized from a 0.2 µm filtered solution containing 1X PBS, pH 8.0.
Applications	Cell culture
Storage	Lyophilized protein should be stored at -20°C for 1 year. Upon reconstitution, store at 2°C to 8°C for up to 1 week. Further dilute in a buffer containing a carrier protein or stabilizer (e.g. 0.1% BSA, 10%FBS, 5%HSA or 5% trehalose solution), protein aliquots should be stored at -20°C or -80°C for 3-6 months. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
Bioactivity	Measure by its ability to induce cell proliferation in PHA-activated human peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBMC) using a concentration range of 5-50 ng/mL. Note: Results may vary from different PBMC donors.
Endotoxin	<0.1 EU per 1 μg of the protein by the LAL method.
Reference Data
UniProt ID	P29460
Synonyms	Interleukin-12 subunit beta, IL-12 subunit p40, IL-12B, Cytotoxic Lymphocyte Maturation Factor 40 kDa subunit (CLMF p40), NK cell Stimulating Factor Chain 2
Summary	Interleukin 12 (IL-12) is a pro-inflammatory cytokine with a molecular weight of 70 kDa composed of two subunits, IL-12p35 (35 kDa) and IL-12p40 (40 kDa). IL-12p40 is induced in excess over the other subunits of IL-12 and IL-23 and can exist in a monomeric or homodimer form.
