Description Recombinant Mouse Interleukin-2 is produced by our E.coli expression system and the target gene encoding Ala21-Gln169 is expressed.
Calculated Molecular Weight Mol Mass:17.4 KDa; APMol Mass:17 KDa, reducing conditions Formulation Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of 20mM Sodium Citrate, 0.2% Tween 80, pH 3.0.
Endotoxin < 0.01 EU/µg as determined by LAL test. Purity Greater than 95% as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE. (QC verified)
Biological Activity Measured in a cell proliferation assay using CTLL‑2 mouse cytotoxic T cells.The specific activity of Recombinant Mouse IL-2 is ≥1×107 IU/mg. (QC verified)
Reconstitution Always centrifuge tubes before opening.Do not mix by vortex or pipetting. It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100μg/ml. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water. Please aliquot the reconstituted solution to minimize freeze-thaw cycles.
Storage Lyophilized protein should be stored at ≤ -20°C, stable for one year after receipt. Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 2-8°C for 2-7 days. Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at ≤ -20°C for 3 months.
Shipping The product is shipped at ambient temperature. Upon receipt, store it immediately at the temperature listed below.
Background Interleukin 2 (IL 2), also termed T-cell growth factor, is a member of the cytokine family which includes IL-4, IL-7, IL-9, IL-15 and IL-21. Each member of this family has a four alpha helix bundle. IL-2 signals through the IL-2 receptor, a complex consisting of tree subunits, termed alpha, beta and gamma. The IL-2 R gamma is shared by cytokine receptors of all members of cytokine family. Mature mouse IL­2 shares 56% and 73% aa sequence identity with human and rat IL­2, respectively. IL-2 is produced by CD4+ T cell, CD8+ T cells, gamma δ T cells, B cells, dendritic cells and eosinophils, and plays a vital role in key function of the immune system, tolerance and immunity, primarily via its potent stimulatory activity for T cells.Thus, IL­2 may be a key cytokine in the natural suppression of autoimmunity.
