Background:
  Interleukin-5 (IL5), also known as eosinophil differentiation factor (EDF), is a lineage-specific cytokine for eosinophilpoiesis [1, 2]. It regulates eosinophil growth and activation [1], and thus plays an important role in diseases associated with increased levels of eosinophils, including asthma. IL5 has a similar overall fold to other cytokines (e.g., IL2, IL4 and GCSF), but while these exist as monomeric structures, IL5 is a homodimer. The fold contains an anti-parallel 4-alpha-helix bundle with a left handed twist, connected by a 2-stranded anti-parallel beta-sheet . The monomers are held together by 2 interchain disulphide bonds.

 

Description :
  Recombinant Human IL-5 produced in E.Coli is a dimeric, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 132 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 26522.84 Dalton.

The rHuIL-5 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

 

Physical Appearance:
  Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.

 

Formulation:
  The protein was lyophilized from a concentrated (1mg/ml) sterile solution with no additives.

 

Solubility:
  It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized rHuIL-5 in sterile 18Mω-cm H2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.

 

Stability:
 
  Lyophilized rHuIL-5 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18 C. Upon reconstitution rHuIL-5 should be stored at 4 C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18 C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).
Please avoid freeze-thaw cycles.

 

Purity:
  Greater than 98.0% as determined by:
(a) Analysis by RP-HPLC.
(b) Anion-exchange FPLC.
(c) Analysis by reducing and non-reducing SDS-PAGE Silver Stained gel.

 

Amino acid sequence:
  The sequence of the first five N-terminal amino acids was determined and was found to be Met-Ile-Pro-Thr-Glu.

 

Dimers and aggregates:
  Less than 1% as determined by silver-stained SDS-PAGE gel analysis.

 

Biological Activity:
  ProSpec's rHuIL-5 is fully biologically active when compared to standard. The ED50 as determined by the dose-dependant stimulation of the proliferation of TF-1 cells was found to be less then 0.15ng/ml, corresponding to a Specific Activity of 6 x 106 IU/mg.

 

Endotoxin:
  Less than 0.1 ng/µg (IEU/µg) of rHuIL-5.

 

Protein content:
  Protein quantitation was carried out by two independent methods:

1. UV spectroscopy at 280 nm using the absorbency value of 0.625 as the extinction coefficient for a 0.1% (1mg/ml) solution. This value is calculated by the PC GENE computer analysis program of protein sequences (InliGenetics).
2. Analysis by RP-HPLC, using a standard solution of IL-5 as a Reference Standard.

 

Usage:
  Prospec's products are furnished for LABORATORY RESEARCH USE ONLY. The product may not be used as drugs, agricultural or pesticidal products, food additives or household chemicals.
