IL-2 antibody

Catalog No. ABIN5687589

Product Details anti-IL-2 Antibody

Target: IL-2 (IL2) (Interleukin 2 (IL2))

Reactivity: Human

Host: Goat

Clonality: Polyclonal

Conjugate: This IL-2 antibody is un-conjugated

Application: Western Blotting (WB), ELISA

Purification: Anti-hIL-2 specific antibody was purified by affinity chromatography employing immobilized hIL-2 matrix.

Immunogen: Produced from sera of goats pre-immunized with highly pure (>98%) recombinant hIL-2 (human Interleukin-2).

Application Details

Application Notes: ELISA:

To detect hIL-2 by direct ELISA (using 100 μ,L/well antibody solution) a concentration of at least 0.5 μ,g/mL of this antibody is required. This antigen affinity purified antibody, in conjunction with compatible secondary reagents, allows the detection of 0.2 - 0.4 ng/well of recombinant hIL-2.

Sandwich

To detect hIL-2 by sandwich ELISA (using 100 μ,L/well antibody solution) a concentration of 0.5 - 2.0 μ,g/mL of this antibody is required. This antigen affinity purified antibody, in conjunction with our Biotinylated Anti-Human IL-2 (XP-5182Bt) as a detection antibody, allows the detection of at least 0.2 - 0.4 ng/well of recombinant hIL-2.

Western Blot:

To detect hIL-2 by Western Blot analysis this antibody can be used at a concentration of 0.1 - 0.2 μ,g/mL. Used in conjunction with compatible secondary reagents the detection limit for recombinant hIL-2 is 1.5 - 3.0 ng/lane, under either reducing or non-reducing conditions.

Restrictions: For Research Use only

Background: Interleukin 2 (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. IL2 has been shown to have antitumor effects in some studies. This is probably mediated by cytotoxic effector cells.
