Recombinant Mouse IL-16 (N-6His)

Description

EnkiLife provides the Recombinant Mouse IL-16 (N-6His) protein,aslo know as Pro-interleukin-16;Interleukin-16;Lymphocyte chemoattractant factor;LCF, which features high purity, high activity, and high stability. It can be applied in scientific research, biopharmaceuticals, and other fields.Purity:Greater than 95% as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE;Endotoxin Level:<1 EU/µg as determined by LAL test.;Construction:Recombinant Mouse Interleukin-16 is produced by our E.coli expression system and the target gene encoding Ser1205-Ser1322 is expressed with a 6His tag at the N-terminus.Accession:O54824. Expression Host:E.coli.Species:Mouse.Predicted Molecular Mass:14.5 KDa. Background: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.
