IL-5 Protein, Human (HEK293)
The IL-5 Protein, predominantly expressed by T-lymphocytes and NK cells, is crucial for eosinophil survival, differentiation, and chemotaxis. It also affects B-cells, inducing immunoglobulin production, growth, and differentiation. IL-5 Protein activates kinases like LYN, SYK, and JAK2, which signal through RAS-MAPK and JAK-STAT5 pathways. It exists as a disulfide-linked homodimer and interacts with IL5RA and CSF2RB subunits. IL-5 Protein, Human (HEK293) is the recombinant human-derived IL-5 protein, expressed by HEK293, with tag free.
- Species: Human
- Source: HEK293

IL-5 Protein is a homodimeric cytokine predominantly expressed by T-lymphocytes and NK cells, and it plays a crucial role in the survival, differentiation, and chemotaxis of eosinophils. Additionally, IL-5 Protein acts on both activated and resting B-cells, inducing immunoglobulin production, growth, and differentiation. Its biological effects are mediated through a receptor composed of IL5RA subunit and the cytokine receptor common subunit beta/CSF2RB, leading to the activation of various kinases such as LYN, SYK, and JAK2. These activated kinases propagate signals through the RAS-MAPK and JAK-STAT5 pathways. IL-5 Protein exists as a disulfide-linked homodimer and interacts with IL5RA and CSF2RB subunits.

<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.
