Interleukin (IL) -15 is a pleiotropic cytokine that plays a pivotal role in both innate and adaptive immunity. IL-15 is unique among cytokines due to its participation in a trans signaling mechanism in which IL-15 receptor alpha (IL-15R alpha) from one subset of cells presents IL-15 to neighboring IL-2R beta/gamma (c) -expressing cells. This newly discovered cytokine is produced by a wide variety of cells and tissues and like IL-2, stimulates the proliferation of T-lymphocytes and induces the generation of cytotoxicT-lymphocytes (CTLs) and lymphokine-activated killer (LAK) cells. Recombinant protein corresponding to aa49-162 from mouse IL-15 fused to His-Tag expressed in E. coli. Molecular Weight: ~17.6kD (152aa) confirmed by MALDI-TOF Biological Activity: Measured in a cell proliferation assay using CTLL2 mouse cytotoxic T cells. The ED50 for this effect is less or equal to 20ng/ml.
