PDGFA Protein, Rat, Recombinant (His)

Platelet-derived growth factor alpha (PDGFA) is frequently upregulated in various cancers and thought to function as a key player in the development and progression of tumor growth by regulating aspects of cell proliferation, angiogenesis and metastasis. The human platelet-derived growth factor A chain gene (PDGFA) on chromosome 7p22 encodes an important mitogen. Within PDGFA lies a complex minisatellite structure that results in partial duplications of exon 4 and the IVS4 splice donor site. PDGFA Protein, Rat, Recombinant (His) is expressed in yeast with His tag. The predicted molecular weight is 14.5 kDa and the accession number is AAB26134.2.
