| Size: | 50µg |
| Species: | Human |
| Target: | IL 2 |
| Synonyms: | T-cell growth factor (TCGF), Lymphokine, IL-2. |
| Source: | Escherichia Coli |
| Physical Appearance: | Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder. |
| Formulation: | The protein was lyophilized from a 0.2?m filtered concentrated solution (1.0mg/ml) in PBS, pH 5.0. |
| Solubility: | It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Interleukin-2 in sterile distilled water not less than 100�g/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions. |
| Stability: | Lyophilized Interleukin-2 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution IL2 should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C.For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |

| Biological Activity: | The ED50 as determined by the dose-dependent stimulation of murine CTLL-2 cells is less than 0.1 ng/ml, corresponding to a Specific Activity of 1x107IU/mg. |
IL2 is a secreted cytokine that is important for the proliferation of T and B lymphocytes. The receptor of this cytokine is a heterotrimeric protein complex whose gamma chain is also shared by interleukin 4 (IL4) and interleukin 7 (IL7). The expression of this gene in mature thymocytes is monoallelic, which represents an unusual regulatory mode for controlling the precise expression of a single gene. The targeted disruption of a similar gene in mice leads to ulcerative colitis-like disease, which suggests an essential role of this gene in the immune response to antigenic stimuli.
Interleukin-2 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 133 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 15.4kDa.The IL-2 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
| UniProt Protein Function: | IL2: Produced by T-cells in response to antigenic or mitogenic stimulation, this protein is required for T-cell proliferation and other activities crucial to regulation of the immune response. Can stimulate B-cells, monocytes, lymphokine- activated killer cells, natural killer cells, and glioma cells. A chromosomal aberration involving IL2 is found in a form of T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL). Translocation t(4;16)(q26;p13) with involves TNFRSF17. Belongs to the IL-2 family. |
