• Tag: Tag Free
• Predicted MW: 24.8 kDa
• Concentration: Resuspend the protein in the desired concentration in proper buffer
• Purity: >95% as determined by SDS-PAGE and Coomassie blue staining
• Buffer: Lyophilized from a 0.2 µM filtered solution of 20mM phosphate buffer,100mM NaCl, pH 7.2
• Bioactivity: Determined by its ability to increase the proliferation effect of IL-2 in murine CTLL-2 cells. In the presence of 1 ng/ml of recombinant IL-2, the expected ED50 for this effect is between 0.5 - 1.5 ug/ml.
• Endotoxin: Endotoxin level is < 0.1 ng/µg of protein (< 1 EU/µg)
• Storage: Store at -80°C.
• Stability: Stable for at least 6 months from date of receipt under proper storage and handling conditions.

• Summary: 'The interleukin 2 (IL2) receptor alpha (IL2RA) and beta (IL2RB) chains, together with the common gamma chain (IL2RG), constitute the high-affinity IL2 receptor. Homodimeric alpha chains (IL2RA) result in low-affinity receptor, while homodimeric beta (IL2RB) chains produce a medium-affinity receptor. Normally an integral-membrane protein, soluble IL2RA has been isolated and determined to result from extracellular proteolyisis. Alternately-spliced IL2RA mRNAs have been isolated, but the significance of each is presently unknown. Mutations in this gene are associated with interleukin 2 receptor alpha deficiency. Patients with severe Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19), the disease caused by the novel severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), have significantly elevated levels of IL2R in their plasma. Similarly, serum IL-2R levels are found to be elevated in patients with different types of carcinomas. Certain IL2RA and IL2RB gene polymorphisms have been associated with lung cancer risk.
