Human GDF8 Protein, hFc Tag
Description :Recombinant human GDF8 Protein with C-terminal human Fc tagBackground : This gene encodes a secreted ligand of the TGF-beta (transforming growth factor-beta) superfamily of proteins. Ligands of this family bind various TGF-beta receptors leading to recruitment and activation of SMAD family transcription factors that regulate gene expression. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate each subunit of the disulfide-linked homodimer. This protein negatively regulates skeletal muscle cell proliferation and differentiation. Mutations in this gene are associated with increased skeletal muscle mass in humans and other mammals. Molecular Characterization: mass of 66.2 kDa after removal of the signal peptide.Tag :C-Human Fc tag
