Recombinant human Growth Hormone R/GHR protein
GHR, also known as growth hormone receptor, is a member of the cytokine receptor family. It binds two receptor molecules and thereby induces signal transduction through receptor dimerization. At high concentrations, growth hormone acts as an antagonist because of a large difference in affinities at the respective binding sites. This antagonist action can be enhanced further by reducing binding in the low affinity binding site. Recombinant human GHR, fused to His-tag at C-terminus, was expressed in insect cell and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques.
