Interferon kappa, also known as IFN-kappa, is a 207 aminoacids protein that in humans is encoded by the IFNK gene. IFN-kappa is a member of the type I interferon family which also includes IFN-alpha, -beta, -epsilon, and -omega. Type I interferons are a group of related glycoproteins that play an important role in host defenses against viral infections. Human IFN-kappa has been detected in keratinocytes, monocytes, and monocyte-derived dendritic cells and is reported to have contact-dependent antiviral activity. Human papillomavirus (HPV) 16 oncogene expression, which is necessary for the development of cervical cancer, has been shown to down-regulate human IFN-kappa expression.

Scientific Data Images for Human IFN‑ kappa Antibody
Human IFN‑ kappa ELISA Standard Curve.
Recombinant Human IFN-kappa protein was serially diluted 2-fold and captured by Mouse Anti-Human IFN-kappa Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB10247) coated on a Clear Polystyrene Microplate (Catalog # DY990). Mouse Anti-Human IFN-kappa Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB102472) was biotinylated and incubated with the protein captured on the plate. Detection of the standard curve was achieved by incubating Streptavidin-HRP (Catalog # DY998) followed by Substrate Solution (Catalog # DY999) and stopping the enzymatic reaction with Stop Solution (Catalog # DY994).Applications for Human IFN‑ kappa Antibody
