Reconstitution Reconstitute the lyophilized recombinant Human Interleukin-16, 130a.a. (rHuIL-16, 130a.a.) to 100 µg/mL using ddH2O. Storage & Stability Lyophilized recombinant Human Interleukin-16, 130a.a. (rHuIL-16, 130a.a.) is stored at -20°C. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer. It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage. Shipping Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere. Background Recombinant Human IL-16 produced in E. coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 130 amino acids. Interleukin-16, a proinflammatory cytokine produced in CD8+ lymphocytes, is synthesized as a precursor protein (pro-IL-16). It is postulated that the C-terminal region of pro-IL-16 is cleaved, releasing bioactive IL-16. IL-16 is produced and secreted predominantly by CD8+ T lymphocytes, and it exerts chemoattractant, growth factor, and other activities on lymphocytes, monocytes, and eosinophils by interaction with CD4[1]. |
