Background: In vitro studies performed on human cell lines demonstrate the immunoregulatory properties of Interleukin-2 (IL-2) including: 1) enhancement of lymphocyte mitogenesis and stimulation of long-term growth of human Interleukin-2 (IL-2) dependent edll lines, 2) enhancement of lymphocyte cytotoxicity, 3) induction of killer cell (lymphokine-activated (LAK) and natural (NK)) activity, 4) induction of interferon-gamma production. Human Interleukin-2 (IL-2) is a highly purified protein with a molecular weight of approximately 15,300 Da. The chemical name is des-alanyl-1, serine-125 human interleukin-2. It is produced by recombinant DNA technology using a genetically engineered E. coli strain containing an analog of the human Human Interleukin-2 (IL-2) gene. Genetic engineering techniques were used to modify the human Interleukin-2 (IL-2) gene, and the resulting expression clone encodes a modified human Interleukin-2 (IL-2). This recombinant form differs from native Interleukin-2 (IL-2) in following ways: 1) it is not glycosylated, 2) the molecule has no N-terminal alanine, 3) the molecule has serine substituted for cysteine at amino acid position 125, 4) the aggregation state of molecule is likely to be different from that of native Interleukin-2 (IL-2). Synonym: rHuIL-2, rHuIL2 zoom, Interleukin-2, Interleukin. Formulation: The protein was lyophilized after extensive dialysis against 50mM Phosphate buffer, pH7.5, 5% Mannitol buffer.
