Active Recombinant Human IL5 Protein

• Cat.No.: IL5-240I
• Product Overview: Recombinant Human IL5 Protein without tag was expressed in CHO.

Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: CHO
• Description: Interleukin-5 (IL-5), produced by mast cells, T cells and eosinophils, is responsible for the activities attributed to eosinophil differentiating factor, B cell growth factor II and T cell-replacing factor (TRF). It can increase production and mobilization of eosinophils and CD34+ progenitors from the bone marrow. IL-5 plays an important role in inducing cell-mediated immunity against parasitic infections and certain tumors. IL-5 also promotes differentiation of basophils and primes them for histamine and leukotriene release.
• Form: Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
• Bio-activity: ED50 < 1 ng/mL, measured in a cell proliferation assay using TF-1 cells, corresponding to a specific activity of > 1 × 10^6 units/mg.
• Molecular Mass: ~29-35 kDa, observed by non-reducing SDS-PAGE.
• AA Sequence: IPTEIPTSALVKETLALLSTHRTLLIANETLRIPVPVHKNHQLCTEEIFQGIGTLESQTVQGGTVERLFKNLSLIKKYIDGQKKKCGEERRRVNQFLDYLQEFLGVMNTEWIIES
• Endotoxin: < 0.2 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.
• Purity: > 95% as analyzed by SDS-PAGE and HPLC.
• Storage: Lyophilized recombinant human Interlerkin 5 (rhIL-5) remains stable up to 6 months at -80 centigrade from date of receipt. Upon reconstitution, rhIL-5 should be stable up to 1 week at 4 centigrade or up to 2 months at -20 centigrade.
• Storage Buffer: Lyophilized after extensive dialysis against PBS.
• Reconstitution: Reconstituted in ddH2O or PBS at 100 μg/mL.
