Latent TGF beta 1/TGFB1, Rat (HEK293, His)

Latent TGF beta 1 (latent TGFB1) is the inactive form of TGF-B1. Latent TGF beta 1 associates with the extracellular matrix (ECM) via LTBP. LTBPs are components of the ECM, so that the proteolytic cleavage of LTBP can lead to the release of latent TGF-beta 1 from the matrix. Besides, the proteolytic cleavage and liberation of active TGFB1 is performed by BMP-1, by a variety of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) [1][3]. Latent TGF beta 1/TGFB1 Protein, Rat (HEK293, His) is the recombinant rat-derived Latent TGF beta 1/TGFB1 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-His labeled tag.
