Recombinant Mouse IL-4
Induced proliferation of HT-2 cells assay for Mouse IL-4. Cell proliferation was measured to calculate the ED50, which is as expected less than 20 ng/ml.
Non-reducing (-) and reducing (+) conditions in a 4 - 20% Tris-Glycine gel stained with Coomassie Blue. 1 μg of protein was loaded in each lane. Human Mouse IL-4 has a predicted Mw of 13.7 kDa.

Interleukin-4 (IL-4) is an immunomodulatory cytokine that functions to induce naive helper T cells to differentiate into type 2 T helper (Th2) cells. Th2 cells subsequently produce more IL-4 in a positive feedback loop. IL-4 also promotes immunoglobulin IgG to IgE isotype switching on B cells. IL-4 binds the IL-4Rα receptor to activate STAT6 signaling.Activity Assay
Mouse IL-4 is fully biologically active when compared to standard. The activity is determined by the ability to induce HT-2 cells proliferation and it is typically less than 20 ng/ml. This corresponds to an expected specific activity of 5.0 x 104 units/mg.AA Sequence
