Limitin, also known as IFN-zeta, is a 20 kDa glycoprotein that is secreted by T cells and bronchial and salivary duct epithelial cells. It inhibits B-lineage cell development but has little effect on myelopoiesis or erythropoiesis. Limitin binds to IFN-alpha / beta receptors and has potent antiviral activity. Mouse Limitin shares 32%, 26%, and 30% amino acid sequence identity with mouse IFN-alpha, mouse IFN-beta, and human IFN-omega, respectively.

Scientific Data Images for Mouse Limitin/IFN-zeta Antibody [Biotin]
Detection of Limitin/IFN‑ zeta in Mouse Thymus.
Limitin/IFN‑ zeta was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of mouse thymus using Goat Anti-Mouse Limitin/IFN‑ zeta Biotinylated Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # BAF597) at 3 µg/ml for 1 hour at room temperature followed by incubation with the Anti-Goat IgG VisUCyte™ HRP Polymer Antibody (Catalog # VC004) or the HRP-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF017). Before incubation with the primary antibody, tissue was subjected to heat-induced epitope retrieval using VisUCyte Antigen Retrieval Reagent-Basic (Catalog # VCTS021). Tissue was stained using DAB (brown) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Specific staining was localized to the cytoplasm and B cells.

Mouse Limitin / IFN-zeta ELISA Standard Curve
Recombinant Mouse Limitin/IFN‑ zeta (Catalog # 1535-LM) was serially diluted and captured by Rat Anti-Mouse Limitin/IFN‑ zeta Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB5971) coated on a Clear Polystyrene Microplate (Catalog # DY990). Goat Anti-Mouse Limitin/IFN‑ zeta Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF597) was biotinylated and incubated with the protein captured on the plate. Detection of the standard curve was achieved by incubating Streptavidin-HRP (Catalog # DY998)Applications for Mouse Limitin/IFN-zeta Antibody [Biotin]
