Recombinant Porcine IFN-alpha (Mammalian) Protein Summary
Product Specifications
Interferon was titrated with the use of the cytopathic effect inhibition assay as listed
Bovine (MDBK/VSV) – performed as described [Rubinstein, et al. (1981) J. Virol. 37 (2):755]. The EC50 for interferon in this assay is ~5 U/ml. Lot Activity was derived from multiple determinations in the above assay.
The units are determined by use of a Human IFN Alpha A (Hu IFN-alpha A [2a]) laboratory standard calibrated to the international reference standard for Human Interferon Alpha A (Hu IFN-alpha A [2a]) provided by the National Institutes of Health [Meager, et al. (2001) J. Immunol Methods. 257(1-2):17-33]. Please note that IFN assays vary between labs and assay systems [Meager, et al (2001). J. Immunol. Meth. 257:17. Meager and Das (2005) J. Immunol. Meth. 306:1].
cDNA obtained from porcine leukocyte mRNA expressed in mammalian cells.
Accession # NM_214393.1
Product Datasheets
Carrier Free
CF stands for Carrier Free (CF). We typically add Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) as a carrier protein to our recombinant proteins. Adding a carrier protein enhances protein stability, increases shelf-life, and allows the recombinant protein to be stored at a more dilute concentration. The carrier free version does not contain BSA.
In general, we advise purchasing the recombinant protein with BSA for use in cell or tissue culture, or as an ELISA standard. In contrast, the carrier free protein is recommended for applications, in which the presence of BSA could interfere.

Background: IFN-alpha
Interferon-alpha (IFN-alpha), also known as leukocyte interferon, represents a group of related but distinct proteins that share over 95% amino acid sequence homology. They are members of the type I interferon family which share a common cell surface receptor composed of two subunits, a 100 kDa ligand-binding subunit (IFN-alpha R2) and a 125 kDa ligand binding and signal transduction subunit (IFN-alpha R1) that is involved both in ligand binding and signal transduction. IFN-alpha has both anti-viral and immunomodulatory activities on target cells.
