Further Information

Alternate Names/Synonyms:
Interleukin-2; Aldesleukin
Biological Activity:
Specific Activity: 1-1.5 x106 Units/mg, measured using CTLL indicator cells. Shows the biological function of the IL-2 moiety and exerts a prolonged circulating half-life caused by the modified Fc domain. Blocks diabetogenic autoimmunity in nonobese diabetic mice.
EClass:
32160000
Endotoxin:
<0.06EU/µg protein (LAL test; Lonza).
Form (Short):
liquid
Formulation:
Lyophilized from 0.2µm-filtered solution in PBS.
Handling Advice:
Avoid freeze/thaw cycles.Centrifuge lyophilized vial before opening and reconstitution.
Long Description:
Protein. The extracellular domain of mouse IL-2 (aa 21-169) is fused to the N-terminus of the Fc region of a mutant mouse IgG2a. Source: NS1 cells. Endotoxin content: <0.06EU/µg protein (LAL test; Lonza). Lyophilized from 0.2µm-filtered solution in PBS. Purity: >98% (SDS-PAGE). Interleukin-2 (IL-2) is a 133 amino acid glycoprotein with one intramolecular disulfide bond and variable glycosylation. It is secreted by activated T cells and induces proliferation and maturation of activated T cells, natural killer cells, and lymphokine activated killer cells. IL-2 also stimulates proliferation of antibody-producing B cells, activates neutrophils, and induces mononuclear cells to secrete IFN-gamma and TNF-alpha and -beta. Moreover, studies have shown that IL-2 is required for activation-induced apoptosis, an important hemeostatic mechanism in the immune system, which is involved in the maintenance of peripheral tolerance to self-antigens.
