Description
IL-15, rat recombinant is available at Gentaur for Next week delivery.
An inducer and mediator of proinflammatory responses
Biomolecule/Target: IL-15
Alternates names: IL-15, Interleukin 15
Synonyms: IL-15, MGC9721.
Background Information: IL-15 stimulates the proliferation of T lymphocytes and shares many biological properties with IL-2. IL-15 exerts its biological activities primarily on T cells. It is also essential in the development, survival and activation of NK cells. Increased expression of IL-15 has been implicated with rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowl disease and diseases affiliated with retroviruses HIV and HTLV-I. Recombinant rat IL-15 is a 13.5 kDa protein consisting of 115 amino acid residues.
Reconstitution Instructions: Reconstitute in 50 mM Tris, pH 8.5 to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 µg/µl. The solution can then be diluted into other aqueous buffers and stored at –4°C for 1 week or –20°C for future use.
