Rat IL-2 Recombinant Protein

• Background:

  IL-2 is produced by T-helper cells in response to antigenic or mitogenic stimulation. It is required for T-cell proliferation and other activities crucial to the regulation of the immune response. IL-2 was discovered to be a member of a family of cytokines, which also includes IL-4, IL-7, IL-9, IL-15 and IL-21. IL-2 signals through a receptor complex consisting of IL-2 specific IL-2 receptor alpha (CD25), IL-2 receptor beta (CD122) and a common gamma chain (γc) . All members of this family use the common gamma chain as part of their signaling complex.

• Description:

  The Rat IL-2 yeast-derived recombinant protein is not tagged and is naturally endotoxin-free. The purity is greater than 98% as visualized by SDS-PAGE analysis. Rat IL-2 applications are for cell culture, ELISA Standard, ELISpot Control, and Western Blot Control.
