The gamma chain of the high affinity functional human IL-2 receptor complex belongs to the hematopoietin receptor family. IL-2 R gamma is a 369 amino acid residue protein consisting of a 22 residue signal sequence, a 232 residue extracellular domain, a 29 residue transmembrane domain and an 86 residue cytoplasmic domain. Although IL-2 R gamma by itself does not bind IL-2 with any appreciable affinity, it is required for IL-2 receptor signaling. Besides IL-2, the gamma chain has been shown to be a component of the functional receptor complexes for IL-4, IL-7, IL-9 and IL-15. It has been proposed that IL-2 R gamma be designated the common gamma chain ( gamma c). The site of molecular defects in X-linked SCID (severe combined immunodeficiency) has now been mapped to the IL-2 R gamma gene.

Scientific Data Images for Human Common gamma Chain/IL‑2 R gamma Antibody
Cell Proliferation Induced by IL‑2 and Neutralization by Human Common gamma Chain/ IL‑2 R gamma Antibody.
Recombinant Human IL-2 (Catalog # 202-IL) stimulates proliferation in the MO7e human megakaryocytic leukemic cell line in a dose-dependent manner (orange line), as measured by Resazurin (Catalog # AR002). Proliferation elicited by Recombinant Human IL-2 (30 ng/mL) is neutralized (green line) by increasing concen-trations of Mouse Anti-Human Common gamma Chain/IL-2 R gamma Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB284). The ND50 is typically 2.5-15 µg/mL.Applications for Human Common gamma Chain/IL‑2 R gamma Antibody
Application
Recommended Usage
Neutralization
Measured by its ability to neutralize IL‑2-induced proliferation in the MO7e human megakaryocytic leukemic cell line. Avanzi, G. et al. (1988) Br. J. Haematol. 69:359. The Neutralization Dose (ND50) is typically 2.5-15 µg/mL in the presence of 30 ng/mL Recombinant Human IL‑2.
