Thymus and activation-regulated chemokine (TARC) is a recently identified CC chemokine that is expressed constitutively in the thymus and transiently in stimulated peripheral blood mononuclear cells. TARC functions as a selective chemoattractant for T cells that express a class of receptors binding TARC with high affinity and specificity. The chemokine TARC is a ligand for the chemokine receptor CCR4 expressed on CD4 Th2 cells.

- Recombinant Human Thymus and Activation-Regulated Chemokine (CCL17)
Formulation- Recombinant TARC was lyophilized from a 0.2 µm filtered 20 µm PB,100 µm NaCl solution pH 7.5.
Endotoxin Level- <1.0 EU/µg of recombinant protein as determined by the LAL method.
Storage Condition- The lyophilized protein is stable for at least one year from date of receipt at -70°C. Upon reconstitution, this cytokine can be stored in working aliquots at +2° to +8°C for one month, or at -20°C for six months, with a carrier protein without detectable loss of activity. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
