Recombinant Human Inhibin β C Chain/INHBC Protein (aa 237-352, His Tag)

Inhibins/activins are involved in regulating a number of diverse functions such as hypothalamic and pituitary hormone secretion; gonadal hormone secretion; germ cell development and maturation; erythroid differentiation; insulin secretion; nerve cell survival; embryonic axial development or bone growth; depending on their subunit composition. Inhibins appear to oppose the functions of activins; Inhibins and activins inhibit and activate; respectively; the secretion of follitropin by the pituitary gland.

Generally, lyophilized proteins are stable for up to 12 months when stored at -20 to -80°C. Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 4-8°C for 2-7 days. Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at < -20°C for 3 months.
