CRG-2 from mouse

Recombinant Mouse CRG-2 is produced from a DNA sequence encoding the mature mouse CRG-2/IP-10 protein sequence (MIPLARTVRCNCHIHIDDGPVRMRAIGKLEIIPASLSCPRVEIIATMKKNDEQRCLNPESKTI KNLMKAFSQKRSKRAP). The methionyl form of the E. coli-expressed mature CRG-2 contains 78 amino acid residues and has a predicted molecular mass of approximately 8.8 kDa.

Recombinant Mouse CRG-2 (IP-10, CXCL10) is a member of the chemokine ??subfamily that lacks the ELR domain. Mouse CRG-2 cDNA encodes a 98 amino acid residue precursor protein with a 21 amino acid residue signal peptide that is cleaved to form the 77 amino acid residue secreted mature protein. Mature mouse CRG-2 shares approximately 67% amino acid sequence identity with human IP-10.

Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution in PBS, pH 7.4, containing 50 μg bovine serum albumin per 1 μg of cytokine

The biological activity is measured by its ability to chemoattract human lymphocytes cultured in the presence of IL-2 for 21 days, or mouse BaF/3 cells transfected with hCXCR-3.
