The gamma chain of the high affinity functional mouse IL-2 receptor complex belongs to the hematopoietin receptor family. Mouse Common gamma Chain is a 369 amino acid residue protein consisting of a 22 residue signal sequence, a 241 residue extracellular domain, a 21 residue transmembrane domain and an 85 residue cytoplasmic domain. Although Common gamma Chain 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. IL-2 R gamma is also designated the common gamma chain ( gamma c) (1, 2). The site of molecular defects in human X-linked SCID (severe combined immunodeficiency) has been mapped to the human common gamma gene.

Scientific Data Images for Mouse Common gamma Chain/IL‑2 R gamma Antibody
Cell Proliferation Induced by IL‑15 and Neutralization by Mouse Common gamma Chain/ IL‑2 R gamma Antibody.
Recombinant Human IL-15 (Catalog # 247-IL) stimulates proliferation in the CTLL-2 mouse cytotoxic T cell line in a dose-dependent manner (orange line). Proliferation elicited by Recombinant Human IL-15 (0.8 ng/mL) is neutralized (green line) by increasing concentrations of Goat Anti-Mouse Common gamma Chain/IL-2 R gamma Antigen Affinity-purified Poly-clonal Antibody (Catalog # AF784). The ND50 is typically 6-24 µg/mL.Applications for Mouse Common gamma Chain/IL‑2 R gamma Antibody
