Reconstitution

Please see Certificate of Analysis for specific instructions.

For best performance, we strongly recommend you to follow the reconstitution protocol provided in the CoA.

Storage

For long term storage, the product should be stored at lyophilized state at -20°C or lower.

Please avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

No activity loss was observed after storage at:

4-8°C for 12 months in lyophilized state;

-70°C for 3 months under sterile conditions after reconstitution.

Background

Interferon alpha/beta receptor 1 ( IFNAR1) is also known as Cytokine receptor class-II member 1, Cytokine receptor family 2 member 1 (CRF2-1), Type I interferon receptor 1, IFNAR, which belongs to the type II cytokine receptor family. IFNAR1 /IFNAR contains four fibronectin type-III domains. IFNAR1 associates with IFNAR2 to form the type I interferon receptor. IFNAR1 is receptor for interferons alpha and beta. IFNAR1 can transduce IFNB signals without the help of IFNAR2, and not activating the Jak-STAT pathway.
