Name : Mouse IL-2 R alpha/CD25 Protein

Product Source :
Recombinant Mouse IL-2 R alpha/CD25 Protein is expressed from HEK293 with His tag at the C-Terminus. It contains Glu22-Lys236.[Accession | P01590]

Molecular Weight :
The protein has a predicted MW of 25.76 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 50-70 kDa based on Tris-Bis PAGE result.

Endotoxin Level :
Less than 1EU per μg by the LAL method.

Purity :
> 95% as determined by Tris-Bis PAGE> 95% as determined by HPLC

Formulation :
Lyophilized from 0.22μm filtered solution in PBS (pH 7.4). Normally 8% trehalose is added as protectant before lyophilization.

Reconstitution :
Centrifuge the tube before opening. Reconstituting to a concentration more than 100 μg/ml is recommended. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water.

Storage and Stability :
-20 to -80°C for 12 months as supplied from date of receipt.-80°C for 3-6 months after reconstitution.2-8°C for 2-7 days after reconstitution.Recommend to aliquot the protein into smaller quantities for optimal storage. Please minimize freeze-thaw cycles.

Product Concentration :
Tris-Bis PAGE Mouse IL-2 R alpha on Tris-Bis PAGE under reduced condition. The purity is greater than 95%. SEC-HPLC The purity of Mouse IL-2 R alpha is greater than 95% as determined by SEC-HPLC. ELISA Data Immobilized Mouse IL-2 R alpha, His Tag at 5μg/ml (100μl/well) on the plate. Dose response curve for Biotinylated Mouse IL-2, His Tag with the EC50 of 0.21μg/ml determined by ELISA (QC Test). SPR Data Mouse IL-2 R alpha, His Tag immobilized on CM5 Chip can bind Mouse IL-2, His Tag with an affinity constant of 30.49 nM as determined in SPR assay (Biacore T200).

Background :
IL-2 receptor alpha (IL-2 R alpha), also known as Tac antigen and as CD25, was initially identified as a 55 kDa membrane glycoprotein that is capable of binding IL‑2.eceptor for interleukin-2. The receptor is involved in the regulation of immune tolerance by controlling regulatory T cells (TREGs) activity. TREGs suppress the activation and expansion of autoreactive T-cells.

Synonyms :
CD25; IDDM10; IL-2 R alpha; IL2R; IL2RA; p55; TCGFR
