products description :
Principle of the Assay: This assay employs the quantitative sandwich enzyme immunoassay technique. Antibody specific for IL-2 has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and any IL-2 present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for IL-2 is added to the wells. After washing, avidin conjugated Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to the wells. Following a wash to remove any unbound avidin-enzyme reagent, a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of IL-2 bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.

ncbi summary :
The protein encoded by this gene is a secreted cytokine that is important for the proliferation of T and B lymphocytes. The receptor of this cytokine is a heterotrimeric protein complex whose gamma chain is also shared by interleukin 4 (IL4) and interleukin 7 (IL7). The expression of this gene in mature thymocytes is monoallelic, which represents an unusual regulatory mode for controlling the precise expression of a single gene. The targeted disruption of a similar gene in mice leads to ulcerative colitis-like disease, which suggests an essential role of this gene in the immune response to antigenic stimuli.

uniprot summary :
IL2: Produced by T-cells in response to antigenic or mitogenic stimulation, this protein is required for T-cell proliferation and other activities crucial to regulation of the immune response. Can stimulate B-cells, monocytes, lymphokine- activated killer cells, natural killer cells, and glioma cells. A chromosomal aberration involving IL2 is found in a form of T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL). Translocation t(4;16)(q26;p13) with involves TNFRSF17. Belongs to the IL-2 family. Protein type: Secreted; Cytokine; Oncoprotein; Secreted, signal peptide. Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 4q26-q27. Cellular Component: extracellular space; extracellular region. Molecular Function: growth factor activity; interleukin-2 receptor binding; cytokine activity; kinase activator activity; carbohydrate binding; glycosphingolipid binding; kappa-type opioid receptor binding. Biological Process: positive regulation of isotype switching to IgG isotypes; negative regulation of heart contraction; natural killer cell activation; positive regulation of activated T cell proliferation; negative regulation of lymphocyte proliferation; elevation of cytosolic calcium ion concentration; negative regulation of protein amino acid phosphorylation; cell-cell signaling; protein kinase C activation; positive regulation of cell proliferation; positive regulation of B cell proliferation; cell adhesion; T cell differentiation; positive regulation of interleukin-17 production; regulation of T cell homeostatic proliferation; positive regulation of regulatory T cell differentiation; positive regulation of immunoglobulin secretion; positive regulation of cell growth; positive regulation of interferon-gamma production; positive regulation of tissue remodeling; positive regulation of tyrosine phosphorylation of Stat5 protein; negative regulation of inflammatory response; immune response; positive regulation of transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter; negative regulation of B cell apoptosis; negative regulation of apoptosis; positive regulation of inflammatory response
