IL-12 is a disulfide-linked heterodimeric protein (p70), composed of two subunits, p35 and p40, which are encoded by two different genes.? Accumulating data indicates that p40 secretion precedes that of IL-12 expression.? In addition, to its ability to covalently bind to p35 to form IL-12, p40 can bind to p19 to form IL-23, or it can form the homodimer designated IL-12 p80. Elevated levels of IL-12 p80 correlate to macrophage recruitment and increased inflammation in asthma and respiratory viral infection models.? Recombinant Human IL-12 p80 is an 80.0 kDa disulfide linked homodimer consisting of two p40 chains of IL-12.
