Recombinant human Vitronectin protein
Vitronectin, also known VTN, is a member of the pexin family. It is a cell adhesion and spreading factor found in serum and tissues. This protein interacts with glycosaminoglycans and proteoglycans and is recognized by certain members of the integrin family and serves as a cell-to-substrate adhesion molecule. It also contains endogenous cleavage sites such as elastase, thrombin and plasmin. This protein binds multiple ligands, including the soluble vitronectin receptor which affects multi-function. Therefore, it is involved in hemostasis, cell migration, as well as tumor malignancy. Recombinant human Vitronectin protein, fused to His-tag at C-terminus, was expressed in insect cell and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques.
