IL-16 Protein, Mouse (His)
Based on 1 Customer Validation
IL-16 Protein, a cytokine, plays a significant role in immune regulation and inflammation. It modulates the activation and migration of various immune cells, such as T cells and monocytes. Understanding the functions of IL-16 Protein can aid in studying immune responses and developing targeted therapies for inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. IL-16 Protein, Mouse (His) is the recombinant mouse-derived IL-16 protein, expressed by E. coli , with N-6*His labeled tag.
- Species: Mouse
- Source: E. coli
-
Storage:Stored at -20°C for 2 years from date of receipt. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.
Biological Activity
IL-16 Protein, a cytokine, plays a significant role in immune regulation and inflammation. It modulates the activation and migration of various immune cells, such as T cells and monocytes.

IL-16 Protein, Mouse (His) is the recombinant mouse-derived IL-16 protein, expressed by E. coli , with N-6*His labeled tag.
IL-16, a multifaceted protein, instigates a migratory response in CD4+ lymphocytes, monocytes, and eosinophils. It plays a pivotal role in priming CD4+ T-cells for responsiveness to interleukin-2 (IL-2) and interleukin-15 (IL-15), concurrently inducing the expression of the interleukin 2 receptor. Additionally, IL-16 serves as a ligand for CD4, fostering intricate interactions. Notably, isoform 1 of IL-16 is proposed to function as a scaffolding protein, providing a structural anchor for ion channels within the cellular membrane.

Product Properties
Lyophilized powder.
Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of 20 mM Tris,150 mM NaCl, pH 8.0.
Note: For SPR assay, please replace the buffer. Primary amine components (e.g., Tris, imidazole) can affect protein-coupled chips.
<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.
It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH2O. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose).
Stored at -20°C for 2 years from date of receipt. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.
Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.
