Function

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.

Biological Context

Subcellular Location: Cytoplasm; Nucleus
Tissue Specificity: Expressed in hemopoietic tissues, such as resting T-cells, but undetectable during active T-cell proliferation

Product Specifications

Recombinant Human interleukin-16 protein (IL16), partial (Active) is a recombinant protein from Homo sapiens (Human), expressed in E.Coli, covering amino acids 1203-1332aa, with Tag-Free tag, molecular weight 13.4 kDa, purity >95% as determined by SDS-PAGE.. Suitable for ELISA and Western Blot applications.

SDS-PAGE: Single band at expected molecular weight confirming purity.

ELISA: Suitable as coating antigen or detection standard.

Western Blot: Compatible with standard Western Blot protocols.
