Human IFN Beta / Interferon Beta Protein (Recombinant)
Description
Purity >95% by SDS-PAGE, MW: ~23 kDa (SDS-PAGE). Interferon-beta (IFN-beta), acting via STAT1 and STAT2, is known to upregulate and downregulate a wide variety of genes, most of which are involved in the antiviral immune response. It is a member of Type I IFNs, which include IFN-a, -beta, t, and -omega. IFN-beta plays an important role in inducing non-specific resistance against a broad range of viral infections. It also affects cell proliferation and modulates immune responses.
