Tag	His Tag (C-term)
Predicted MW	The protein has a calculated MW of 22.7 kDa. The protein migrates as 24 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 proliferation in 7TD1 cells. The ED₅₀ for this effect is <0.01 ng/mL. The specific activity of recombinant mouse IL-6 is approximately >1x 10⁸ IU/mg.
Endotoxin	<0.1 EU per 1 μg of the protein by the LAL method.
Reference Data
UniProt ID	P08505
Synonyms	IFN-β2, B-Cell Differentiation Factor (BCDF), BSF-2, HPGF, HSF, MGI-2
Summary	Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a pleiotropic, 22-28 kDa cytokine which plays fundamental role in the acute phase response, inflammation, bone metabolism, lymphocyte differentiation and cancer progression. Deregulation of IL-6 production was also found in several diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis, Alzheimer’s disease, autoimmune deficiency disease and different types of cancer.
