Rabbit anti-Human IFN-α mAb (DET)

Interferon-Alpha 2a (IFN-Alpha 2a), Human produced by leukocytes is a member of Interferon family. IFN-alpha is mainly involved in innate immune response against a broad range of viral infections. IFN-alpha 2 has three acid stable forms (a,b,c) signaling through IFNAR2. IFN-alpha 2a shares 99.4% , 98.8% aa sequence identity with IFN-alpha 2b and 2c respectively. IFN-alpha contains four highly conserved cysteine residues which form two disulfide bonds, one of which is necessary for biological activity.
