Description

BACKGROUND  Interleukin 2 (IL-2) is an immunomodulatory cytokine that is produced by lymphocytes.  IL-2 signals through the IL-2R receptor to induce activated T cell proliferation and promote T cell differentiation.  IL-2 also stimulates the proliferation and differentiation of B cells, natural killer cells, monocytes, and macrophages.
 
Recombinant Rat Interleukin-2 is a non-glycosylated protein monomer, containing 136 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 15.6 kDa.
