| Mouse Interleukin-5 (mIL-5) is a glycoprotein also known as EDF and TRF. It is involved in B-cell growth and eosinophil activation. IL-5 has been shown to be expressed in Th2, mast cells and eosinophils and is regulated by GATA-3, in addition to other transcription factors. IL-5 signals its biological effect through interaction with the IL-5 receptor (IL-5R). Recombinant mIL-5 is produced in E. coli, comprised of two 113aa chains forming a disulfide-linked homodimer with a molecular weight of 26.2kD. | | | Catalog # | I8437-06R | | Source | Recombinant corresponding to mouse IL-5 expressed in E. coli. | | AA Sequence | MEIPMSTVVK ETLTQLSAHR ALLTSNETMR LPVPTHKNHQ LCIGEIFQGL DILKNQTVRG GTVEMLFQNL SLIKKYIDRQ KEKCGEERRR TRQFLDYLQE FLGVMSTEWA MEG | | Molecular Weight | ~26.2kD | | Endotoxin Level | <0.01ng/ug | | Biological Activity | Mouse IL-5 is fully biologically active as compared to standard.
