Active Human CCL16

• Cat.No.: CCL16-112H
• Product Overview: It is a synthetic Protein

Specification

• Species: Human
• Tag: Non
• Description: NCC-4 (also known as HCC-4) is a CC chemokine. It is a 97 amino acid protein. It exhibits less than 30% sequence identity to other CC chemokines. NCC-4 chemoattracts human monocytes and THP-1 cells. However it does not chemoattract resting lymphocytes or neutrophils. It has been found to supress proliferation of myeloid progenitor cells and induces calcium flux in THP-1 cells. This calcium flux can be desensitized by exposure to RANTES which suggests that NCC-4 and RANTES share the same receptor in THP-1 cells.
• Form: Lyophilized
• Bio-activity: Activity measured by the protein's ability to chemoattract THP-1 cells. ED50 for this activity is 0.5-3 μg/ml.
• Applications: Activity Assay
• Storage: Product should be stored at -20°C. Aliquot to avoid freeze/thaw cycles
• Reconstitution: Recommended reconstitution in sterile phosphate buffered saline which contains at least 0.1% human or bovine serum albumin to prepare a stocksolution of no less than 20 μg/ml and vortex thoroughly.
