Supplier:: United States Biological
Host:: Mouse
Immunogen:: GDF8 (NP_005250, 243aa-310aa) partial recombinant protein with GST tag. MW of the GST tag alone is 26kD.
Clone:: 2D8
Format:: Supplied as a liquid in PBS, pH 7.4.
Extra Details:: The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) family and the TGF-beta superfamily. This group of proteins is characterized by a polybasic proteolytic processing site which is cleaved to produce a mature protein containing seven conserved cysteine residues. The members of this family are regulators of cell growth and differentiation in both embryonic and adult tissues. This gene is thought to encode a secreted protein which negatively regulates skeletal muscle growth. [provided by RefSeq Applications: Suitable for use in ELISA, Western Blot. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
