Purity > 95% by SDS-PAGE.
Endotoxin < 1 EU/μg of the protein by LAL method.
Formulation Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of 20mM PB, 150mM NaCl, pH 7.0.Contact us for customized product form or formulation.
Species Human
Interleukin-16 (IL-16) is a CD8+ T cell-derived cytokine that induces chemotaxis of CD4+ T cells and CD4+monocytes and eosinophils. Analysis by gel filtration suggests that, under physiological conditions, human IL-16exists predominantly as a noncovalently linked multimer, but that some IL-16 may exist as a monomer.However, only the multimeric form appears to possess chemotactic activity, suggesting that receptor cross-linking may be required for activity. IL-16 also induces expression of IL-2 receptor (IL-2R) and MHC class IImolecules on CD4+ T cells. Human and murine IL-16 show significant cross-species reactivity.
