Plasmid Information

URL: http://www.addgene.org/104348

Proper Citation: RRID:Addgene_104348

Insert Name: Human IL-2 (C125S)

Organism: Homo sapiens

Bacterial Resistance: Ampicillin

Vector Backbone Description: Backbone Marker:qIAGEN; Backbone Size:4751; Vector Backbone:pQE80L; Vector Types:Bacterial Expression; Bacterial Resistance:Ampicillin

Comments: Like the FDA approved Proleukin (Aldesleukin), the sequence contains a C125S mutation (TGT -> TCC) to prevent cysteine mispairing in E. coli, but this does not affect biological activity (Wang et al. 1984) Expression and inclusion body preparation was carried out essentially as described in Carmenate et al. (2013), except that the 6M guanidine solubilised IL-2 was applied directly to an NTA column at 1 column volume / minute. LPS was removed with 0.1% Triton X114 / TE washes following by on-column re-folding with TE buffer. NTA-purified His-IL-2 exhibited identical activity to commercially sourced (tag-free) IL-2 (Peprotech). References: Wang A, Lu SD, and Mark DF.

Data and Source Information

Source: Addgene (RRID:SCR_002037)
Description: Non-profit plasmid repository dedicated to helping scientists around the world share high-quality plasmids. Facilitates archiving and distributing DNA-based research reagents and associated data to scientists worldwide. Repository contains over 65,000 plasmids, including special collections on CRISPR, fluorescent proteins, and ready-to-use viral preparations. There is no cost for scientists to deposit plasmids, which saves time and money associated with shipping plasmids themselves. All plasmids are fully sequenced for validation and sequencing data is openly available. We handle the appropriate Material Transfer Agreements (MTA) with institutions, facilitating open exchange and offering intellectual property and liability protection for depositing scientists. Furthermore, we curate free educational resources for the scientific community including a blog, eBooks, video protocols, and detailed molecular biology resources.
