Active Recombinant Human Epstein-Barr Virus Induced 3

• Cat.No.: EBI3-504H
• Product Overview: Epstein-Barr Virus Induced Gene-3 (EBI-3), is a secreted glycoprotein belonging to the hematopoietin receptor family and related to the p40 subunit ofIL-12. It was identified by its induced expression in B-lymphocytes in response to Epstein-Barr virus infection. Recombinant Human EBI is a non-glycosylated polypeptide chain consisting of 209 amino acids with a molecular weight of 23.3 kDa.

Specification

• Cat. No.: EBI3-504H
• Description: Epstein-Barr virus induced gene 3, also known as EBI3, is a protein which in humans is encoded by the EBI3 gene. This gene was identified by the induction of its expression in B lymphocytes by Epstein-Barr virus infection. The protein encoded by this gene is a secreted glycoprotein, which is a member of the hematopoietin receptor family related to the p40 subunit of interleukin 12 (IL-12). It plays a role in regulating cell-mediated immune responses.
