Recombinant Human Interleukin-2, Tag Free
Powered by people, fly by design. Future Fields’ Recombinant Human Interleukin-2 is a cytokine ready to support your life-changing research in cell therapies and beyond.
Interleukin 2 (IL-2) is a monomeric cytokine that was originally identified as a T cell growth factor. It binds to heterotrimeric receptors consisting of CD25, CD122, and CD132. Upon binding, it activates JAK3-, STAT5-, and AKT-dependent signaling pathways, which results in cellular proliferation and survival.
Recombinant human IL-2 is produced to aid in various research and therapeutic applications, including CAR-T, CAR-NK, and TIL immunotherapies.
Our purified Recombinant Human Interleukin-2 comes as lyophilized powder, which when reconstituted is ready to be supplemented into cell culture media. Please see the Product Data Sheet for recommendations on storage, handling, and reconstitution.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why can’t I see a pellet in the vial?
Lyophilized powder may not be visible for many reasons including, but not limited to, dislodged powder being stuck on the cap or lack of carrier proteins that make the product difficult to see. Please tap or centrifuge the vial to bring all the material down to the bottom and reconstitute the product as outlined above.
Are there any stability concerns with freeze thawing?
Repeated freeze thawing is not recommended, as this may damage the protein products resulting in reduced functionality. After reconstitution, please aliquot into suitable sizes for one time use and freeze.
Can I add BSA as a carrier?
Yes. Adding a carrier protein like Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA 0.1%) enhances protein stability, increases shelf-life, and allows the recombinant protein to be stored at a more dilute concentration.
Is the protein bioactive?
Yes, this protein was tested for activity on its cognate receptor via SPR.
Are volume discounts or recurring order discounts available for this product?
Yes. Please reach out to sales@futurefields.io to discuss your needs.
