IL-1β (D3U3E) Rabbit mAb (PE Conjugate) recognizes endogenous levels of total IL-1β protein and can detect up to 100 pg of recombinant mature IL-1β. This antibody is not observed to detect endogenous levels of mature IL-1β.
Source / Purification
Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with recombinant human IL-1β protein.
Description
This Cell Signaling Technology antibody is conjugated to phycoerythrin (PE) and tested in-house for direct flow cytometry analysis in human cells. The antibody is expected to exhibit the same species cross-reactivity as the unconjugated IL-1β (D3U3E) Rabbit mAb #12703.

Background
Interleukin-1β (IL-1β), one of the major caspase-1 targets, is a multifunctional cytokine that is involved in a host of immune and proinflammatory responses (1). It is produced primarily by activated monocytes and macrophages. It signals through various adaptor proteins and kinases that lead to activation of numerous downstream targets (2-6). Human IL-1β is synthesized as a 31 kDa precursor. To gain activity, the precursor must be cleaved by caspase-1 between Asp116 and Ala117 to yield a 17 kDa mature form (7,8). Detection of the 17 kDa mature form of IL-1β is a good indicator of caspase-1 activity.
