Interleukin-2 self-association.

J D Fleischmann1, D Wentworth, F Valencic, A L Imbembo, K A Koehler.   

Abstract

The self-association of human recombinant interleukin-2 (IL-2) from E. coli was explored. Self-association, with an apparent Kd of 0.6 micromolar, has pronounced effects on (1) the surface exposure of Trp-121, deduced from quenching studies employing potassium iodide and acrylamide, (2) the apparent quantum yield of Trp-121, the fluorescence of Trp-121 in IL-2 aggregates is 4-fold lower than in IL-2 "monomers", and (3) IL-2-mediated phospholipid vesicle fusion/aggregation.
