Cat#: | RP-4076H |
Product Name: | Recombinant Human IL5 Protein |
Synonym: | EDF, BCDFII, TRF, T-cell replacing factor, Eosinophil differentiation factor, B cell differentiation factor I, IL-5. |
Description: | Interleukin-5 Protein produced in E.coli is a dimeric, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing two 113 amino acids chains, and having a molecular mass of 26522.84 Dalton. The IL-5 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. |
Source: | E.coli |
AA Sequence: | The sequence of the first five N-terminal amino acids was determined and was found to be Met-Ile-Pro-Thr-Glu. |
Purity: | Greater than 98.0% as determined by: (a) Analysis by RP-HPLC. (b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE. |
Bioactivity: | The ED50 as determined by the dose-dependant stimulation of the proliferation of TF-1 cells was found to be < 0.15ng/ml, corresponding to a Specific Activity of 6 x 106 IU/mg. |
Formulation: | Lyophilized from a concentrated (1mg/ml) solution in water containing no additives. |
Stability: | Recombinant Proteins are stable for up to 1 year from date of receipt at -70℃ |
Reconstitution: | It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Interleikin-5 in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions. |
Storage: | Lyophilized Interleukin-5 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution IL5 should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C. Please avoid freeze thaw cycles. |
