CXCL16 Mouse Recombinant Protein

C-X-C motif chemokine 16; Small-inducible cytokine B16; Transmembrane chemokine CXCL16; Scavenger receptor for phosphatidylserine and oxidized low density lipoprotein; SR-PSOX; Cxcl16; Srpsox; Zmynd15; AV290116; BB024863; 0910001K24Rik

Determined by its ability to chemoattract murine lymphocytes using a concentration range of 100-1000ng/ml corresponding to a Specific Activity of 1,000-10,000IU/mg.

It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized CXCL16 Mouse in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.

Induces a strong chemotactic response. Induces calcium mobilization. Binds to CXCR6/Bonzo. Also acts as a scavenger receptor on macrophages, which specifically binds to OxLDL (oxidized low density lipoprotein), suggesting that it may be involved in pathophysiology such as atherogenesis.

Lyophilized CXCL16 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution CXCL16 should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C.For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA) .Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
