Origin
- Human
-
Source
- Escherichia coli (E. coli)
- Purpose
- Human IL-15 Protein
- Sequence
- Asn49-Ser162
- Characteristics
- Recombinant Human IL-15 Protein is expressed from E.coli without tag., It contains Asn49-Ser162.
- Purity
- >95 % as determined by Tris-Bis PAGE, > 95 % as determined by SEC-HPLC
- Sterility
- 0.22 μm filtered
- Endotoxin Level
- Less than 0.05 EU per μg by the LAL method.
- Biological Activity Comment
- Measured in a cell proliferation assay using CTLL2 cells. The ED50 for this effect is 0.1 0.3 ng/mL. The specific activity of recombinant human IL15 is > 1 x 10^7 units/mg, which is calibrated against the human IL15 reference standard (NIBSC code: 95/554). Test result was comparable to standard batch.

- Format
- Lyophilized
- Reconstitution
- Centrifuge the tube before opening. Reconstituting to a concentration more than 100 μg/mL is recommended. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water.
- Buffer
- Lyophilized from 0.22 μm filtered solution in PBS ( pH 7.4) / 20 mM Tris, 150 mM NACI ( pH 8.0). Normally 8 % trehalose is added as protectant before lyophilization.

- Background
- Interleukin 15 (IL-15) is a widely expressed 14 kDa cytokine that is structurally and functionally related to IL-2 and plays an important role in many immunological diseases. IL-15 is a cytokine that stimulates the proliferation of T-lymphocytes. Stimulation by IL15 requires interaction of IL15 with components of the IL2 receptor, including IL2RB and probably IL2RG but not IL2RA.
- Molecular Weight
- 12.8 kDa same as Tris-Bis PAGE result.
