Description

A single non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 127 amino acids corresponding to IL-9 Source: E. coli

Uniprot ID: D4A8I9

Amino Acid Sequence: MQRCSTSWGI QHTSYLIENL KDDPSSKCSC SANVTSCLCL PIPSDDCTTP CFQEGMSQVT NATQQSKFSP FFFRVKRIVE TLKSNKCQFF SCEKPCNQTT AGNTVSFLKS LLKTFQKTEV QVQRSRA

This lyophilized preparation is stable at 2-8 degrees C, but should be kept at -20 degrees C for long term storage, preferably desiccated. Upon reconstitution, the preparation is most stable at -20 to -80 degrees C, and can be stored for one week at 2-8 degrees C. For maximal stability, apportion the reconstituted preparation into working aliquots and store at -20 degrees C to -80 degrees C. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.

Purity

> 97 % pure by SDS-PAGE and HPLC

Endotoxin Level

Less than 0.1 EU/ug of IL-9 as determined by LAL method.

Predicted Molecular Mass

14.3 kDa.
Disclaimer note: The observed molecular weight of the protein may vary from the listed predicted molecular weight due to post translational modifications, post translation cleavages, relative charges, and other experimental factors.

Activity

IL9 Protein is fully biologically active when compared to standard. The ED50 as determined by a cell proliferation assay using murine TS1 cells is less than 10 ng/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of > 1.0 x 10^5 IU/mg.

Background: IL-9

Interleukin-9 (IL-9) is encoded by the IL9 gene and produced by T-cells and specifically by CD4+ helper cells. IL-9 was originally identified as a cytokine found in the conditioned medium of a human T cell leukemia virus type I (HTLVI) transformed T cell line. It functions through the IL-9 receptor, which activates different signal transducer and activator (STAT) proteins and thus connects this cytokine to various biological processes. IL-9 can support the growth of IL-2 independent and IL- 4 independent helper T-cells. Rat IL-9 has approximately 73 % amino acid sequence identity with murine IL-9. The gene encoding this cytokine has been identified as a candidate gene for asthma. Genetic studies on a mouse model of asthma demonstrated that this cytokine is a determining factor in the pathogenesis of bronchial hyperresponsiveness.
