GMP IL-15 Protein, Human

IL-15 protein regulates immune cells, stimulates the proliferation of NK cells, T cells, and B cells, and promotes cytokine secretion. GMP IL-15 Protein, Human is the recombinant human-derived IL-15 protein, expressed by E. coli , with tag free. The total length of GMP IL-15 Protein, Human is 114 a.a., with molecular weight of ~12.0 kDa.

IL-15 Protein assumes a pivotal role in orchestrating inflammatory and protective immune responses against microbial invaders and parasites, modulating immune cells across both the innate and adaptive immune systems. This cytokine stimulates the proliferation of natural killer cells, T-cells, and B-cells, while also promoting the secretion of various cytokines. Notably, IL-15, unlike most cytokines, is expressed on the surface of IL-15-producing cells in association with its high-affinity receptor IL15RA, delivering signals to target cells expressing IL2RB and IL2RG receptor subunits. Upon binding to its receptor, IL-15 triggers the phosphorylation of JAK1 and JAK3, recruiting and subsequently phosphorylating signal transducer and activator of transcription-3/STAT3 and STAT5. In monocytes, IL-15 induces the production of IL8 and monocyte chemotactic protein 1/CCL2, attracting neutrophils and monocytes to infection sites. Additionally, in mast cells, IL-15 induces rapid tyrosine phosphorylation of STAT6, exerting control over mast cell survival and the release of cytokines such as IL4.

Measured in a cell proliferation assay using CTLL-2 mouse cytotoxic T cells. The specific activity of Recombinant human IL-15 is ≥ 1.0 × 10⁷ IU/mg. which is calibrated against human IL-15 WHO International Standard.
