Mouse IL-16 Recombinant Protein N-6 His Tag Lyophilized from Innovative Research has been recombinantly produced in E. coli. This is a Lyophilized protein buffered in Lyophilized from a 0.2 um filtered solution of 20mM Tris,150mM NaCl,pH 8.0. It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100UG/ml. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in ddH2O. with a purity of Greater than 95% as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE.Endotoxin level less than 0.1 ng/ug (1 IEU/ug) as determined by LAL test..More Details: Species: Mouse Target: Il16 Purity: Greater than 95% as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE.Endotoxin level less than 0.1 ng/ug (1 IEU/ug) as determined by LAL test. Source: E. coli Storage Conditions: Lyophilized protein should be stored at -20░C, though stable at room temperature for 3 weeks.Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 4-7░C for 2-7 days.Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at -20░C for 3 months. Additional Information:Mouse interleukin-16(IL-16) is a single chain non-glycosylated polypeptide. IL-16 is widely expressed in human tissues including spleen, thymus, lymph nodes, peripheral leukocytes, bone marrow and cerebellum. IL-16 plays an important role instimulating a migratory response in CD4 lymphocytes, monocytes, and eosinophils,inducing T-lymphocyte expression of interleukin 2 receptor.It was originally identified as a CD8 T cell-derived chemoattractant for CD4 cells. In addition to its chemotactic properties, IL-16 has also been shown to suppress HIV-1 replication in vitro and appears to be involved in transcriptional regulation of SKP2 and is probably part of a transcriptional repression complex on the core promoter of the SKP2 gene. It may act as a scaffold for GABPB1 (the DNA-binding subunit the GABP transcription factor complex) and HDAC3 thus maintaining transcriptional repression and blocking cell cycle progression in resting T-cells.This recombinant protein can be used for biological assays. For research use only. . At Innovative Research we provide reliable, consistent products that deliver reliable, consistent results.
