BGN Human, Sf9

Source: Sf9, Insect cells.Sterile filtered colorless solution.Biglycan (BGN) is a small cellular or pericellular matrix proteoglycan which takes part in assembly of collagen fibrils and muscle regeneration. BGN is closely correlated in structure to two other small proteoglycans, decorin and fibromodulin. BGN interacts with several proteins involved in muscular dystrophy, including alpha-dystroglycan, alpha- and gamma-sarcoglycan and collagen VI. BGN is also critical for the assembly of the dystrophin-associated protein complex.BGN produced in Sf9 Insect cells is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 340 amino acids (38-368 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 38.3kDa (Molecular size on SDS-PAGE will appear at approximately 40-57kDa) . BGN is expressed with a 9 amino acid His tag at C-Terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
