IL-2 murine rec.
Product information "IL-2 murine rec."
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 Mouse Recombinant produced in E. coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 148 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 17.2kDa. The IL-2 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Synonyms: Interleukin-2, T-cell growth factor (TCGF), Lymphokine, IL-2.
