General description
This is a 96 well format sandwich ELISA which uses our Conferma® process to ensure a high degree of lot to lot consistency. The process involves the physiochemical characterization of the ELISAs critical reagents lot to lot, with finished kits being evaluated using a sample library to bridge between lots.

Entrez Gene Summary:
This gene encodes a cytokine that functions in inflammation and the maturation of B cells. In addition, the encoded protein has been shown to be an endogenous pyrogen capable of inducing fever in people with autoimmune diseases or infections.
UniProt Summary:
- Function: Cytokine with a wide variety of biological functions in immunity, tissue regeneration, and metabolism.
- Size: 212 amino acids; 23,718 Da
- Subunit: Component of a hexamer of two molecules each of IL6, IL6R and IL6ST.
- Subcellular location: Extracellular region or secreted
- Disease: Rheumatoid arthritis systemic juvenile (RASJ). A IL6 promoter polymorphism is associated with a lifetime risk of development of Kaposi sarcoma in HIV-infected men.
- Similarity: Belongs to the IL-6 superfamily.
Application
Research Category:
- Cytokines
- Inflammation & Immunology
