Recombinant humaan IL-16 eiwit

Molecular weight: 13.4 KDaDescription: Recombinant Human Interleukin-16 is produced by our E.coli and the target gene encoding Met1-Ser130 is expressed.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-16 exists 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 II molecules on CD4 T cells. Human and murine IL-16 show significant cross-species reactivity.
