Localization in human interleukin 2 of the binding site to the alpha chain (p55) of the interleukin 2 receptor.
Human interleukin 2 (IL-2) analogs with defined amino acid substitutions were used to identify specific residues that interact with the 55-kDa subunit (p55) or alpha chain of the human IL-2 receptor. Analog proteins containing specific substitutions for Lys-35, Arg-38, Phe-42, or Lys-43 were inactive in competitive binding assays for p55. All of these analogs retained substantial competitive bi...
متن کاملInterleukin 2 (IL-2) augments transcription of the IL-2 receptor gene.
We demonstrate that purified interleukin 2 (IL-2) can directly upregulate IL-2 receptor expression on phytohemagglutinin-activated T lymphocytes maintained in culture until IL-2 receptor expression had markedly declined. The IL-2-induced increase in IL-2 receptor number is maximal within 12 hr, requires new RNA and protein synthesis, and is mediated by an interaction of ligand with the high-aff...
متن کاملThe human interleukin-2 receptor.
Complementary DNAs corresponding to the human receptor for interleukin-2 (IL-2) have been molecularly cloned, sequenced, and expressed in both COS-1 and L cells. The human genome appears to contain a single structural gene for this receptor located on the short arm of chromosome 10 (band 14-15). However, when transcribed, at least two families of mRNAs are produced, which vary in length due to ...
متن کاملLimited proteolysis of recombinant human soluble interleukin-2 receptor. Identification of an interleukin-2 binding core.
Limited proteolysis of a recombinant, soluble form of the Tac protein, a human interleukin-2 receptor (rIL-2R), was performed using trypsin, Staphylococcus aureus V8 protease and proteinase K to study the structural requirements of interleukin-2 receptor (IL-2R) for interleukin-2 (IL-2) binding. Sensitive proteolytic sites were found to be clustered in the regions of the polypeptide encoded by ...
متن کاملStructural basis for receptor sharing and activation by interleukin-20 receptor-2 (IL-20R2) binding cytokines.
Interleukin 20 (IL-20) is a pleotropic IL-10 family cytokine that protects epithelial surfaces from pathogens. However, dysregulated IL-20 signaling is implicated in several human pathologies including psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, atherosclerosis, and osteoporosis. IL-20, and related cytokines IL-19 and IL-24, designated IL-20 subfamily cytokines (IL-20SFCs), induce cellular responses throu...
