Related Product Information for IL2 active protein
Rat IL2, also known as T-cell growth factor, is a secreted immunoregulatory cytokine produced by T-cells due to antigenic or mitogenic stimulation. IL2 binds to the IL2 receptor, which is found in T and B cells and natural killer cells, and is composed of three distinct components: the cytokine specific alpha-chain, and the beta-and gammac-subunits. Its receptor complex IL2 induces the proliferation of T cells, generation of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs), proliferation and synthesis of immunoglobulin by B cells, and the survival of natural killer cells. Its heterotrimeric receptor complex is also shared by Interleukin 4 (IL4) and Interleukin 7 (IL7) by its gamma chain, and receptor signalling is essential for its expression and differentiation of regulatory T cells in the immune response.

NCBI Description
cytokine produced by T-cells in response to antigen or mitogen stimulation [RGD, Feb 2006]
Uniprot Description
Produced by T-cells in response to antigenic or mitogenic stimulation, this protein is required for T-cell proliferation and other activities crucial to regulation of the immune response. Can stimulate B-cells, monocytes, lymphokine-activated killer cells, natural killer cells, and glioma cells.

Product Notes
The IL2 il2 (Catalog #AAA4159997) is an Active Protein produced from E Coli and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "IL2, Active Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
