Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody detects C-X-C motif chemokine 16 (gene CXCL16) in human samples and is validated for ELISA and Western blot. The predicted molecular weight is 27.6 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 35 kDa.
CXCL16 is an unusual chemokine that exists both as a membrane-bound molecule and as a soluble form released by cleavage. The membrane form acts as a scavenger receptor for oxidized LDL on macrophages and as an adhesion molecule, while both forms attract cells carrying the receptor CXCR6. It is studied in atherosclerosis, liver immunity and inflammation.

Conditions in the example images (WB): 5–20% gradient SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions, 30 µg lysate per lane, transfer to nitrocellulose membrane, blocking in 5% non-fat milk, primary antibody at 0.5 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C, HRP-conjugated secondary antibody at 1:5000, ECL detection.
Immunogen
Recombinant human CXCL16 fragment (Asn30–Ala196), expressed in E. coli. Sequence identity with the mouse and rat orthologs: 47% and 45.7%, respectively.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human. UniProt describes C-X-C motif chemokine 16 as secreted and also located in the cell membrane. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Expressed in T-cell areas. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
