Functional Studies - Recombinant Human IL-5 protein (Active) (AB283427)
Fully biologically active determined by the dose dependent proliferation of TF-1 cells. ED50 is ≤ 0.15 ng/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of 6.9 x 10⁶ units/mg. Cell based assay testing is performed on the first lot of protein only and is provided as a reference for protein activity; subsequent lots of protein must pass all biophysical quality control parameters that meet the same parameters as the first lot. Lot GR3398596-2.

Function
Homodimeric cytokine expressed predominantly by T-lymphocytes and NK cells that plays an important role in the survival, differentiation, and chemotaxis of eosinophils (PubMed : 2653458, PubMed : 9010276). Also acts on activated and resting B-cells to induce immunoglobulin production, growth, and differentiation (By similarity). Mechanistically, exerts its biological effects through a receptor composed of IL5RA subunit and the cytokine receptor common subunit beta/CSF2RB (PubMed : 1495999, PubMed : 22528658). Binding to the receptor leads to activation of various kinases including LYN, SYK and JAK2 and thereby propagates signals through the RAS-MAPK and JAK-STAT5 pathways respectively (PubMed : 7613138).
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the IL-5 family.
