Interleukin 2 receptor, alpha, also called IL2R, IL2R, Alpha Chain or CD25, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the IL2RA gene. IL2RA is composed of strand-swapped sushi-like domains, unlike the classical cytokine receptor fold. As a result of this domain swap, it uses a composite surface to dock into a groove on IL2 that also serves as a binding site for antagonist drugs. Homodimeric alpha chains result in low-affinity receptor, while homodimeric beta chains produce a medium-affinity receptor. Normally an integral-membrane protein, soluble IL2RA has been isolated and determined to result from extracellular proteolyisis. Infection by the protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi causes Chagas disease, characterized by a reduction in the amount of IL2RA expressed on the surface of immune cells. This leads to chronic immune suppression, becoming increasingly severe over the course of many years and ultimately resulting in death if left untreated.
The stated application concentrations are suggested starting amounts. Titration of the IL2RA antibody may be required due to differences in protocols and secondary/substrate sensitivity.
An amino acid sequence from the N-terminus of human IL2RA (MAYKEGTMLNCECKRGFRR) was used as the immunogen for this IL2RA antibody.
After reconstitution, the IL2RA antibody can be stored for up to one month at 4oC. For long-term, aliquot and store at -20oC. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
