GPA34/VSIG1 Protein, Human, Recombinant (His)

VSIG1, a cell adhesion protein of the immunoglobulin superfamily, is preferentially expressed in stomach, testis, and certain gastric, esophageal and ovarian cancers. Here, we describe the expression patterns of three alternatively spliced isoforms of mouse Vsig1 during pre- and postnatal development of stomach and potential function of Vsig1 in differentiation of gastric epithelia. VSIG1 is required for the establishment of glandular versus squamous epithelia in the stomach. GPA34/VSIG1 Protein, Human, Recombinant (His) is expressed in HEK293 mammalian cells with C-His tag. The predicted molecular weight is 24 kDa and the accession number is Q86XK7-1.
