| Introduction | The protein encoded by this gene is a cytokine that acts as a growth and differentiation factor for both B cells and eosinophils. This cytokine is a main regulator of eosinopoiesis, eosinophil maturation and activation. The elevated production of this cytokine is reported to be related to asthma or hypereosinophilic syndromes. The receptor of this cytokine is a heterodimer, whose beta subunit is shared with the receptors for interleukine 3 (IL3) and colony stimulating factor 2 (CSF2/GM-CSF). This gene, together with those for interleukin 4 (IL4), interleukin 13 (IL13), and CSF2, form a cytokine gene cluster on chromosome 5. This cytokine, IL4, and IL13 are found to be regulated coordinately by long-range regulatory elements spread over 120 kilobases on chromosome 5q31. |
| Synonyms | EDF, BCDFII, TRF, T-cell replacing factor, Eosinophil differentiation factor, B cell differentiation factor II, IL-5, BCGF-II, Cytotoxic T-lymphocyte inducer, Il5. |
| Source | Escherichia Coli. |
| Physical Appearance | Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder. |
| Formulation | Lyophilized from a concentrated (1mg/ml) solution containing 20mM Sodium Phosphate and 50mM NaCl pH-7.5. |
| Solubility | It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Mouse Interleikin-5 in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O at a concentration of 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions. |
| Stability | Lyophilized Mouse Interleukin-5 althoµgh stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution Mouse IL5 should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C.Please avoid freeze thaw cycles. |
