Application Notes for anti-IL4 antibody
Research Application(s): ELISA Detection: BVD6-24G2 monoclonal antibody is useful as a detection antibody in a sandwich ELISA for quantifying mouse IL-4 protein levels.3-5 Biotinylated BVD6-24G2 antibody should be paired with purified BVD4-1D11 antibody as the capture antibody, with purified recombinant mouse IL-4 as the standard.
Since applications vary, each investigator should determine the optimal concentration appropriate for individual applications.

Other Notes

Small volumes of anti-IL4 antibody vial(s) may occasionally become entrapped in the seal of the product vial during shipment and storage. If necessary, briefly centrifuge the vial on a tabletop centrifuge to dislodge any liquid in the container`s cap. Certain products may require to ship with dry ice and additional dry ice fee may apply.

UniProt Comments for IL4

Function: Participates in at least several B-cell activation processes as well as of other cell types. It is a costimulator of DNA-synthesis. It induces the expression of class II MHC molecules on resting B-cells. It enhances both secretion and cell surface expression of IgE and IgG1. It also regulates the expression of the low affinity Fc receptor for IgE (CD23) on both lymphocytes and monocytes.

Subcellular location: Secreted.

Sequence similarities: Belongs to the IL-4/IL-13 family.
