Serum IL-2 inhibitor in mice. II. Molecular characteristics.
1985
The molecular characteristics of a serum IL-2 inhibitor were determined by fractionating active sera from normal and malaria-infected mice, and assaying inhibitory activity in blocking production and expression of IL-2 activity. Using isoelectric focusing and ion exchange chromatography, the activity resolved in a single peak (pI = 6.2). HPLC gel filtration resolved two peaks of activity (50,000 and 25,000 MW) which are probably related. The molecule is precipitated by 50% saturated ammonium sulphate, and is destroyed by heating above 56 degrees or by acidification below pH 4.
