| Description | IL-16 (interleukin 16), or LCF (lymphocyte chemoattractant factor), was first functionally and biochemically characterized in 1982. IL-16 is produced as a precursor protein (pro-IL16), composed of 631 residues which undergoes cleavage by caspase-3 to produce and secrete a C-terminal biologically IL-16 (interleukin 16), or LCF (lymphocyte chemoattractant factor), was first functionally and biochemically characterized in 1982. IL-16 is produced as a precursor protein (pro-IL16), composed of 631 residues which undergoes cleavage by caspase-3 to produce and secrete a C-terminal biologically active peptide of 121 amino acids. This gene is localized to human chromosome 15q26.3... Read More | Inquire | Proteasome-activating peptide 1 TFA is a peptide and a potent proteasome activator.

It is a disulfide-linked heterodimer composed of the 40 kD cytokine receptor like subunit and a 35 kD subunit. This cytokine is expressed by activated macrophages that serve as an essential inducer of Th1 cells development. IL12 has been found to be important for sustaining a sufficient number of memory/effector Th1 cells to mediate long-term protection to an intracellular pathogen. Recombinant human IL12 protein, fused to His-tag at C-terminus, was expressed in insect cells using baculovirus expression system and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques...

Streptavidin homo-tetramers have an extraordinarily high affinity for biotin. With a dissociation constant on the order of ≈10⁻¹⁴ mol/L,BackgroundStreptavidin is a tetrameric bacterial protein isolated from Streptomyces avidinii providing 4 high-affinity biotin binding sites. Streptavidin homo-tetramers have an extraordinarily high affinity for biotin. With a dissociation constant on the order of ≈10⁻¹⁴ mol/L, the binding of biotin to streptavidin is one of the strongest non-covalent interactions known in nature. Unlike egg-white avidin, which has a net positive charge at neutral pH and contains about 7% carbohydrate, streptavidin has almost no net charge at neutral pH, does not contain carbohydrate, and exhibits lower non-specific background. Streptavidin conjugates are widely used together with a conjugate of biotin for specific detection of a variety of proteins, protein motifs, nucleic acids and other molecules. This FITC-streptavidin conjugate was prepared by highly purified Streptavidin and free FITC was removed. Streptavidin (FITC) is a useful second-step reagent for the indirect immunofluorescent staining of cells in combination with biotinylated primary antibodies for flow cytometric analysis. Excitation at 488nm light leads to a fluorescence emission maximum of 520 nm.Recommended Usage：Every lot of Streptavidin-FITC is tested by flow cytometry using biotinylated primary antibodies. From this testing it is recommended that between 0.02 and 0.25 µg of streptavidin be used per 106 cells in a 100 µl staining volume... Read More |
