  • Human IL-15Rα or IL-2Rβ were captured on a Biacore surface plasmon resonance sensor chip and relative affinities were calculated from kinetic measurements. Each assay was performed in duplicate. KD, dissociation constant (affinity); koff, mean dissociation rate constant; kon, mean association rate; ND, not determined.

  • IL, interleukin; rhIL-15, recombinant human IL-15.
