Recombinant Human Profilin-1

Source : Escherichia Coli. PFN1 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 140 amino acids (1-140 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 15kDa.The PFN1 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. Profilin1 (PFN1) is a ubiquitous actin monomer-binding protein which is a member of the profilin family. PFN1 significantly boosts skin wound healing in-vitro and in-vivo which may be mediated by purinergic receptors. PFN1 is also active in endothelial cell migration and vessel sprouting. PFN1 is thought to control actin polymerization in response to extracellular signals. PFN1 binds to actin and affects the formation of the cytoskeleton. In addition, PFN1 has an important role in the regulation of epithelial cell-cell adhesion. At high concentrations, profilin averts the polymerization of actin, while at low concentrations it enhances the polymerization. PFN1 gene deletion is linked to Miller-Dieker syndrome.
