Additional Info
| Tissue Specificity | Isoform 3: Expressed in hemopoietic tissues, such as resting T-cells, but undetectable during active T-cell proliferation. |
| Post Translational Modifications | Isoform 3: Synthesized as a chemo-attractant inactive precursor in hemopoietic tissues, and proteolytically cleaved by caspase-3 to yield IL-16. |
| Function | Interleukin-16 stimulates a migratory response in CD4+ lymphocytes, monocytes, and eosinophils. Primes CD4+ T-cells for IL-2 and IL-15 responsiveness. Also induces T-lymphocyte expression of interleukin 2 receptor. Ligand for CD4. Isoform 1: May act as a scaffolding protein that anchors ion channels in the membrane. Isoform 3 is involved in cell cycle progression in T-cells. 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. 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. |

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Human IL-16 (IL-16) Antibody Pair (STJAP00717)
This antibody pair is designed to detect human IL-16, corresponding to UniProt entry Q14005. Reactivity has been confirmed for human samples only.
Both antibodies are rabbit monoclonal IgGs. The two clones provided are R04-6D1 and R08-8E1, and both are supplied unconjugated and affinity purified.
Each antibody is supplied at 1 mg/mL, formulated in 0.01M PBS at pH 7.2. Both are unconjugated and affinity purified.
This antibody pair has been validated for use in ELISA. No other assay formats are listed in the product specifications.
Optimal working dilutions are determined by the end user and are not defined in the product specifications. Titration of both the capture and detection antibodies is recommended when setting up the assay.
Both antibodies should be stored at 4°C for short-term use. For long-term storage, aliquot and keep at -20°C. Repeated freeze/thaw cycles should be avoided to maintain activity.
