Low Micromolar Small Molecule Inhibitor of IL-2

Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 14664558

Disease

[IL2_HUMAN] Note=A chromosomal aberration involving IL2 is found in a form of T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL). Translocation t(4;16)(q26;p13) with involves TNFRSF17.

Function

[IL2_HUMAN] Produced by T-cells in response to antigenic or mitogenic stimulation, this protein is required for T-cell proliferation and other activities crucial to regulation of the immune response. Can stimulate B-cells, monocytes, lymphokine-activated killer cells, natural killer cells, and glioma cells.

About this Structure

1pw6 is a 2 chain structure with sequence from Homo sapiens. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA.
