  • Swine IFN-ω5 (catalog RP1024S) is a yeast-derived cytokine supplied lyophilized without carrier protein in 10% trehalose; it has no affinity tags and is naturally endotoxin-free, and should be reconstituted in sterile PBS that contains at least 0.1% carrier protein. The protein is ~19.7 kDa, 171 amino acids long (full sequence provided), and >98% pure by SDS-PAGE, with 100% amino-acid homology to pig. Store at -20°C (stable up to twelve months from date of receipt; working aliquots with carrier protein stable ~3 months) and avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles. Product origin is the USA. It is commonly used to study type I interferon signaling and antiviral immune responses (including regulation of innate immunity and gene expression); typical experimental uses include cell-culture stimulation and antiviral assays, signaling and gene-expression studies, ELISA and neutralization assays, flow-cytometry and Western blot controls, and antibody generation/validation.

  • Swine Interferon Omega 5 (IFN-ω5) is a type I interferon cytokine involved in the innate antiviral immune response in pigs (Sus scrofa). IFN-ω5 is produced primarily by virus-infected cells and immune cells following recognition of viral nucleic acids by pattern recognition receptors such as Toll-like receptors (TLRs) and RIG-I-like receptors. Swine IFN-ω5 binds to the type I interferon receptor complex (IFNAR1/IFNAR2) expressed on many immune and non-immune cells, activating intracellular signaling through the JAK-STAT pathway, particularly STAT1 and STAT2, which leads to the formation of the ISGF3 transcription complex and induction of numerous interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs) that inhibit viral replication and enhance antiviral defenses. In pigs, IFN-ω5 contributes to the establishment of an antiviral state, modulation of innate and adaptive immune responses, and regulation of inflammatory signaling. Swine IFN-ω5 is studied in veterinary immunology and infectious disease research, particularly in porcine viral disease models such as porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) and swine influenza virus, where type I interferon responses including IFN-ω5 play an important role in early antiviral immunity and host defense.
