Source
Human IL-3 Protein, premium grade (IL3-H5115) is expressed from E. coli cells. It contains AA Ala 20 - Phe 152 (Accession # P08700-1).
Predicted N-terminus: Met
It is produced under our rigorous quality control system that incorporates a comprehensive set of tests including sterility and endotoxin tests. Product performance is carefully validated and tested for compatibility for cell culture use or any other applications in the early preclinical stage.
GMP-L03H18 is the GMP version of this IL3-H5115. These two proteins display indistinguishable performance profiles, thereby ensuring a seamless transition for end users from early preclinical stage to later clinical phases.

Quality Description
ACRO's Research-grade products are suitable for a wide range of cell culture applications, particularly for research use in academic institutions. These products are sterilized by filtration before lyophilization. Typical specifications include endotoxin levels of <0.01 EU/μg and purities >95%. Biological activity is calibrated against WHO/NIBSC standards when available.
ACRO's Premium-grade (Pre-GMP) products are characterized by their high quality and enhanced safety profiles, making them ideal for early-stage discovery and manufacturing processes in cell therapy companies. A key advantage is their seamless transition to corresponding GMP-grade versions. Biological activity is calibrated against WHO/NIBSC standards when available. Typical specifications include endotoxin levels of <0.01 EU/μg and purities >95%. In addition, rigorous testing is conducted to ensure the absence of mycoplasma, HCD, and HCP, thereby guaranteeing product safety.
Background
Interleukin-3 (IL-3) is an interleukin, a type of biological signal (cytokine) which is encoded by the IL-3 gene located on chromosome 5 and produced primarily by activated T cells beside human thymic epithelial cells, activated murine mast cells, murine keratinocytes and neurons/astrocytes. The protein acts in hematopoiesis by controlling the production, differentiation, and function of 2 related white cell populations of the blood, the granulocytes and the monocytes-macrophages. The human IL-3 reported to be a monomer, as it is known, contains 133 amino acids residues which is a single non-glycosylated polypeptide. Specifically, human and murine IL-3 share low homology and it does not show activity on murine cells.
