Mouse CXCL16 PicoKine ELISA Kit
Background: Chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 16 (CXCL16) is a small cytokine belonging to the CXC chemokine family. Larger than other chemokines (with 254 amino acids), CXCL16 is composed of a CXC chemokine domain, a mucin-like stalk, a transmembrane domain and a cytoplasmic tail containing a potential tyrosine phosphorylation site that may bind SH2.1 These are unusual features for a chemokine, and allow CXCL16 to be expressed as a cell surfacebound molecule, as well as a soluble chemokine.2 CXCL16 is produced by dendritic cells found in the T cell zonesof lymphoid organs, and by cells found in the red pulp of the spleen.1 Cells that bind and migrate in response toCXCL16 include several subsets of T cells, and natural killer T (NKT) cells.1 CXCL16 interacts with the chemokinereceptor CXCR6, also known as Bonzo.1, 3 Expression of CXCL16 is induced by the inflammatory cytokinesIFN-gamma and TNF-alpha.2 The gene for human CXCL16 is located on chromosome 17p13.4 The standardproduct used in this kit is recombinant mouse CXCL16, consisting of 88 amino acids with the molecular mass of 9.9KDa.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
Uniprot Description
CXCL16: 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. Induces a strong chemotactic response. Induces calcium mobilization. Binds to CXCR6/Bonzo. Belongs to the intercrine alpha (chemokine CxC) family.
Protein type: Membrane protein, integral
Cellular Component: extracellular space; membrane; integral to membrane
Molecular Function: low-density lipoprotein receptor activity; chemokine receptor binding; chemokine activity; cytokine activity; scavenger receptor activity
Biological Process: receptor-mediated endocytosis; response to cytokine stimulus; chemotaxis; lymphocyte chemotaxis; positive regulation of cell growth; positive regulation of cell migration

Product Notes
The Mouse CXCL16 cxcl16 (Catalog #AAA175996) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA175996 ELISA Kit recognizes Mouse CXCL16. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "CXCL16, ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
