Interleukin 2 (IL 2; T-cell growth factor), produced with and without costimulation by Burkitt's lymphoma line Daudi, is purified approximately 37,000-fold to apparent homogeneity from lymphocyte-conditioned medium by (NH4)2SO4- precipitation, ion-exchange chromatography, gel filtration and hydrophobic chromatography. Native IL 2 produced in the absence of Daudi cells has a molecular weight of about 26,000 daltons as measured by gel filtration and yields IL 2 having two molecular weights of about 16,000 and 17,000 daltons after denaturation as measured by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. IL 2 produced in the presence of Daudi cells shows a molecular weight of approximately 14,500 daltons as measured by both gel filtration and sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. |
