General description

Type I interferons are proteins produced in response to inducers like viral infection and can be divided into α and β subtypes. IFN-β provokes high antiproliferation response in certain cells like embryonal carcinoma, melanoma and melanocytes. It also has high potency in treatment of multiple sclerosis and certain cancers. Anti-interferon β antibody can be used in western blot. Goat anti-interferon β antibody reacts specifically with human interferon-β and has shown no cross reactivity with recombinant human interferon-γ.

Specificity

The antibody will neutralize the biological activity of recombinant human IFN-β. It will not block the biological activity of recombinant human IFN-α or IFN-γ.

Immunogen

recombinant human IFN-β, expressed in Escherichia coli.

Application

Anti-interferon β antibody can be used in immunoblotting. It can also be used to neutralize the bioactivity of recombinant human interferon-β.

Physical form

Lyophilized from a solution in phosphate buffered saline containing carbohydrates.

In the current study, we have addressed the role of interferons (IFNs) in controlling the differentiation of pluripotent P19 embryonal carcinoma (EC) cells. Blocking IFN activity in the culture medium of differentiating cells with antibodies leads to a strong decrease
