Product Description |
Recombinant Human Activin A Protein is expressed from HEK293 without tag.It contains Gly311-Ser426. |
Product Background |
Activin-A, a member of the TGF-β superfamily, Extensive research over the past decades illuminated fundamental roles for activin-A in essential biologic processes, including embryonic development, stem cell maintenance and differentiation, haematopoiesis, cell proliferation and tissue fibrosis. Activin-A signals through two type I and two type II receptors which, upon ligand binding, activate their kinase activity, phosphorylate the SMAD2 and 3 intracellular signaling mediators that form a complex with SMAD4, translocate to the nucleus and activate or silence gene expression. |

Amino Acid Range |
Gly311-Ser426 |
Molecular Weight |
The protein has a predicted MW of 12.97 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 14-15 kDa under reduced (R) condition, and 23-25 kDa under Non reducing (N) condition based on Bis-Tris PAGE result. |
Activity |
Immobilized Human Activin A, No Tag at 1ug/ml (100ul/well) on the plate. Dose response curve for Human Activin RIIB, His Tag with the EC50 of 21.4ng/ml determined by ELISA (QC Test). The affinity constant of 55.35 pM as determined in SPR assay (Biacore T200). See testing image for detail. |
