The IFNA16 Polyclonal Antibody (PAC061939) is a valuable tool for researchers studying interferon alpha 16 (IFNA16), a type I interferon involved in immune response regulation. Raised in rabbits, this antibody is highly specific for detecting IFNA16 in human samples and has been validated for use in Western blot applications. By binding to the IFNA16 protein, this antibody enables precise detection and analysis in a variety of cell types, making it an ideal choice for studies in immunology and infectious diseases research.
IFNA16 is known for its anti-viral properties and plays a crucial role in the body's defense against viral infections. By understanding the function and regulation of IFNA16, researchers can gain insights into how the immune system responds to viral threats and develop new strategies for combating viral diseases. This antibody provides a powerful tool for investigating the roles of IFNA16 in immune signaling pathways and may lead to the development of novel therapies for infectious diseases.

IHC image of PACO61939 diluted at 1:100 and staining in paraffin-embedded human gastric cancer performed on a Leica BondTM system. After dewaxing and hydration, antigen retrieval was mediated by high pressure in a citrate buffer (pH 6.0). Section was blocked with 10% normal goat serum 30min at RT. Then primary antibody (1% BSA) was incubated at 4°C overnight. The primary is detected by a biotinylated secondary antibody and visualized using an HRP conjugated SP system.
Background:
Produced by macrophages, IFN-α have antiviral activities. Interferon stimulates the production of two enzymes: a protein kinase and an oligoadenylate synthetase.
Function: Produced by macrophages, IFN-alpha have antiviral activities. Interferon stimulates the production of two enzymes: a protein kinase and an oligoadenylate synthetase.Subcellular location: Secreted. Sequence similarities: Belongs to the alpha/beta interferon family.
