Product name
Recombinant Human IL-36RA protein
Code
CD01498
Biological activity
Fully biologically active when compared to standard. The ED50 as determined by inhibiting IL-36 beta induced IL-8 secretion by human preadipocytes is less than 1.0 μg/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of > 1000 IU/mg in the presence of 20 ng/ml of recombinant human IL-36 beta.
Endotoxin
Less than 1 EU/μg of rHuIL-36RA as determined by LAL method.

Molecular Weight
Approximately 16.8 kDa, a single non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 154 amino acids.
Formulation
Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered concentrated solution in PBS, pH 7.4.
Reconstitution
We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Reconstitute in sterile distilled water or aqueous buffer containing 0.1 % BSA to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL. Stock solutions should be apportioned into working aliquots and stored at ≤ -20 °C. Further dilutions should be made in appropriate buffered solutions.
Background
Interleukin-36 receptor antagonist (IL-36RA) is a secreted protein which belongs to the interleukin 1 cytokine family (IL-1 family) and it is predominantly expressed in keratinocytes but not in fibroblasts, endothelial cells or melanocytes. IL-36RA has been reported to antagonize the biological activity of IL-36α (IL-1F6), IL-36β (IL-1F8), and IL-36γ (IL-1F9). Furthermore, it could constitute part of an independent signaling system analogous to interleukin-1 alpha (IL-1A), beta (IL-1B) receptor agonist and interleukin-1 receptor type I (IL-1R1). In addition, The receptor for IL-36RA has not been positively identified. Indirect evidence suggests it is IL-1Rrp2. Recombinant human IL-36 RA contains 154 amino acid residues and it shares 91 % a.a. sequence identity with Mouse IL-36RA.
