Anti-IL-29 is an IgG fraction antibody purified from monospecific antiserum by a multi-step process which includes delipidation, salt fractionation and ion exchange chromatography followed by extensive dialysis against the buffer stated above. This antibody is specific for human IL-29 protein. A BLAST analysis was used to suggest cross-reactivity with IL-29 from human sources based on 100% homology with the immunizing sequence. Based on high to 100% homology, there is a chance of cross-reactivity to IL-29 from a wide variety of animals. Cross-reactivity with IL-29 from other sources has not been determined.
Target Information
IFN-lambdas constitute a novel family of interferons that mediate the induction of anti-viral protection in a wide variety of cells. There are three members in this family, namely lambda1, lambda2, and lambda3, which are also known as IL-29, IL-28A, and IL-28B, respectively. Similar to type I IFNs, IFN-lambdas activate an intracellular signaling to promote gene expression. IFN-lambdas mediate their anti-viral protection through a class II cytokine receptor complex composed of two essential receptor proteins, CRF2-12/IFN-lambdaR1, which is unique to IFN-lambdas, and CFR2-4/IL-10R2, which is shared with IL-10, IL-22, and IL-26 receptors. The IFN-lambdas, IL-28 and IL-29, have recently been reported to prime dendritic cells to induce proliferation of Foxp3-bearing regulatory T cells. DCs that differentiate in response to IFN-lambdas express high levels of class I and II MHC gene products, but low levels of costimulatory molecules. Moreover, these cells can specifically induce IL-2-dependent proliferation of CD4+CD25+FOXP3+ T cells with contact-dependent suppressive activity.
