IL-1RL1/ST2 was initially identified in stimulated BALB/3T3 cells and is encoded by the IL-1RL1 gene that produces different isoforms by alternative splicing. In humans, four isoforms have been described: a membrane attached ST2L isoform and a soluble protein (sST2/ IL1RL1-a) that lacks the transmembrane and cytoplasmic domains, which acts as a natural antagonist of IL-33. The other splice variants are ST2V and ST2LV. ST2V lacks the third immunoglobulin motif and C-terminal portion of ST2 and is mainly present in the gut whereas ST2LV does not have the transmembrane domain. In mouse, only two isoforms are identified, membrane-bound isoform A and secreted form, isoform B. The membrane isoform of ST2L (IL-1RL1) associates with IL-1 receptor accessory proteins (IL-1RAcP) to form the IL-33R. The interaction of IL-33 to its receptor activates NF-kB and MAP kinases and induces Th2 cytokines from in vitro polarized Th2 cells. In vivo, IL-33 promotes the expression of IL-4, IL-5, and IL-13. IL-33 acts as an inflammatory cytokine in Th2-type immune responses during asthma and atopic dermatitis. It is host-protective against helminth infections and reduces atherosclerosis by promoting Th2-type immune responses. Human aortic, coronary artery, and heart microvascular endothelial cells express mRNA for ST2L and sST2 isoforms, acting as a source for sST2 proteins. In fact, sST2 is considered as a prognostic biomarker in myocardial infarction and heart failure. In addition, sST2 has been associated with other human diseases including asthma with acute exacerbation, eosinophilic pneumonia, sepsis and trauma, and exacerbated idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.

• Greater than 95% Purity or higher, tested on every lot of product.
• 100% Satisfaction Guarantee for quality performance, stability, and consistency.
• Ready-to-use liquid format saves time and reduces challenges associated with reconstitution.

• Learn more about our Recombinant Proteins. - How does the activity of your recombinant proteins compare to competitors?
-
We quality control each and every lot of recombinant protein. Not only do we check its bioactivity, but we also compare it against other commercially available recombinant proteins. We make sure each recombinant protein’s activity is at least as good as or better than the competition’s. In order to provide you with the best possible product, we ensure that our testing process is rigorous and thorough. If you’re curious and eager to make the switch to BioLegend recombinants, contact your sales representative today!
- What is the specific activity or ED50 of my recombinant protein?
-
The specific activity range of the protein is indicated on the product datasheets. Because the exact activity values on a per unit basis can largely fluctuate depending on a number of factors, including the nature of the assay, cell density, age of cells/passage number, culture media used, and end user technique, the specific activity is best defined as a range and we guarantee the specific activity of all our lots will be within the range indicated on the datasheet. Please note this only applies to recombinants labeled for use in bioassays. ELISA standard recombinant proteins are not recommended for bioassay usage as they are not tested for these applications.
- Have your recombinants been tested for stability?
-
Our testing shows that the recombinant proteins are able to withstand room temperature for a week without losing activity. In addition the recombinant proteins were also found to withstand four cycles of freeze and thaw without losing activity.
- Does specific activity of a recombinant protein vary between lots?
-
Specific activity will vary for each lot and for the type of experiment that is done to validate it, but all passed lots will have activity within the established ED50 range for the product and we guarantee that our products will have lot-to-lot consistency. Please conduct an experiment-specific validation to find the optimal ED50 for your system.
- How do you convert activity as an ED50 in ng/ml to a specific activity in Units/mg?
-
Use formula Specific activity (Units/mg) = 10^6/ ED50 (ng/mL)
