IL-2R beta/CD122 Protein, Rat (HEK293, His)
Based on 1 Customer Validation
IL-2R beta (CD122), a type Ⅰ cytokine receptor expressed on T lymphocytes, is a receptor for IL-2 (Kd: 1 nM approximately). IL-2R beta mediates T cell immune responses, such as stimulating T cell proliferation and activating lymphokine-activated killer cells. IL-2R beta/CD122 Protein, Rat (HEK293, His) is a recombinant rat IL-2R beta (M1-E239) with a C-Terminal His tag, which is produced in HEK293 cells.
- Species: Rat
- Source: HEK293
-
Storage:Stored at -20°C for 2 years from date of receipt. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.

Description
IL-2R beta (CD122), a type Ⅰ cytokine receptor expressed on T lymphocytes, is a receptor for IL-2 (Kd: 1 nM approximately)[1]. IL-2R beta mediates T cell immune responses, such as stimulating T cell proliferation and activating lymphokine-activated killer cells[2]. IL-2R beta/CD122 Protein, Rat (HEK293, His) is a recombinant rat IL-2R beta (M1-E239) with a C-Terminal His tag, which is produced in HEK293 cells.
Background
IL-2R beta (CD122) is a type I cytokine receptor, and belongs to Type 4 subfamily. IL-2R beta is also a key component of the IL-15 receptor. IL-2R beta is broadly expressed in spleen, blood, and lymph node, such as B and T lymphocytes[1][3].
The sequence of amino acids in IL-2R beta differs in different species. Rats IL-2R beta shares 81.01% aa sequence identity with mouse. Human IL-2R beta shares <60% aa sequence identity with mouse and rats.
IL-2R beta cytoplasmic domain heterodimerizes with IL-2 and leads to the activation of signaling pathways: phosphoinositol 3-kinase (PI3-K)/AKT, Ras-MAP kinase, and the JAK-STAT pathways[4]. IL-2R beta binds IL-2 with intermediate affinity. IL-2R beta mediates IL-2 internalization and signal transduction, such as cell proliferation or differentiation[5]. IL-2R beta interacts with IL-2 and increases the proportion of CD4+ T lymphocytes[1]. IL-2R stimulates T cell proliferation and activating lymphokine-activated killer cells[2].
IL-2R beta mediates T cell immune responses, and also mediates endocytosis, as well as transducing the mitogenic signals of IL-2.
Verified Bioactivity
Measured by its ability to inhibit the IL-15-dependent proliferation of MO7e human megakaryocytic leukemic cells. The ED50 for this effect is 7.957 µg/mL in the presence of 4.0 ng/mL of recombinant human IL-15, corresponding to a specific activity is 6.094×105 units/mg.

Product Properties
Lyophilized powder
Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4.
<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.
It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH2O. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose).
Stored at -20°C for 2 years from date of receipt. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.
Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.
