GHBP Human, His

Source: Sf9, Insect cells.Sterile filtered colorless solution.Growth hormone receptor, also known as GHR is part of the cytokine receptor family. GHR binds 2 receptor molecules and in this manner induces signal transduction through receptor dimerization. Furthermore, at high concentrations, growth hormone performs as an antagonist since there is a large difference in affinities at the respective binding sites. The antagonist action can be enhanced further by reducing binding in the low affinity binding site.GHBP produced in Sf9 Insect cells is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 254 amino acids (19-264a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 29.4kDa (Molecular size on SDS-PAGE will appear at approximately 28-40kDa) .GHBP is expressed with an 8 amino acid His tag at C-Terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
