Extra Details:
Interleukin-21 (IL-21) is a member of the common gamma-chain family of cytokines (includes IL-2, IL-4, IL-7, IL-9, IL-13, and IL-15) and is expressed by activated CD4+ T cells. IL-21 has a private receptor known as IL-21R, which is expressed on T, B, and NK cells. Within the B cell lineage, IL-21 regulates IgG1 production and cooperates with IL-4 for the production of multiple Ab classes in vivo. Initial studies have demonstrated that IL-21 has pleiotropic effects on the proliferation, differentiation, and effector functions of B, T, natural killer, and dendritic cells. Recombinant mouse IL-21 is a non-glycosylated protein, containing 130 amino acids, with a total molecular weight of 15.1 kDa.

Bioactivity of Mouse Interleukin-21 Recombinant Protein. Serial dilutions of Mouse IL-21 (starting at 100 ng/mL) or ConA (+ control) were added to primary mouse thymocytes cultured on an anti-cD3e coated plate. After 72 hours, total live thymoctyes were measured and the linear portion of the curve was us used to calculate the ED50. The ED50 of Mouse IL-21 is between 2.5-7.5 ng/mL. This effect is comparable to the competitor sample assayed in J. Parrish-Novak, et al. (2000) Nature 408:57-63.
