Product Overview
Recombinant Mouse TGF-beta RI/ALK-5 protein, (Ala21-Glu121) & (Thr22-Glu121), with a human IgG1 (Pro100-Lys330) Fc tag at C-terminus was expressed in Spodoptera frugiperda, Sf 21 (baculovirus) cells.
Description
This gene encodes a member of the transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta) receptor family of proteins. These proteins comprise one component of the TGF-beta signaling pathway, which transduces extracellular signals into gene expression changes to regulate a wide range of cellular responses, including proliferation, migration, differentiation and apoptosis. Homozygous knockout mice for this gene exhibit impaired angiogenesis and embryonic lethality. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
Bio-activity
Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. When Recombinant Rat Endoglin/CD105 Fc Chimera or Recombinant Mouse Endoglin/CD105 Fc Chimera is immobilized at 2 μg/mL (100 μL/well), the concentration of Recombinant Mouse TGF-beta RI/ALK-5 Fc Chimera that produces 50% of the optimal binding response is found to be approximately 0.25-1.25 μg/mL.
Storage
