General description
The IL-1 family is comprised of 11 structurally related ligands, including the recently re-named IL-36RA (IL-1F5), IL-36? (IL-1F6), IL-36? (IL-1F8), and IL-36? (IL-1F9). The interaction of IL-36 ligands with the IL-1Rrp2 receptor (IL-1R6) can induce various activities, including dendritic cell maturation and activation. IL-36RA can antagonize the NF-kappaB signaling induced by either IL-36?, -? or -? by binding to the IL-1Rrp2 receptor in a manner that prevents the initiation of functional signaling. Recombinant human IL-36RA is an E. coli derived 17 kDa protein containing 154 amino acid residues.

Physical form
Lyophilized from 10 mM Sodium Phosphate, pH 7.5.
Preparation Note
Centrifuge the vial prior to opening. Reconstitute in water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/ml. Do not vortex. This solution can be stored at 2-8°C for up to 1 week. For extended storage, it is recommended to further dilute in a buffer containing a carrier protein (example 0.1% BSA) and store in working aliquots at -20°C to -80°C.
