  • Molecular Characterization

    GDF-8 Structure

    Other Tags and Version Biotin & Other Labeled Version

    This protein carries an Avi tag (Avitag™) at the C-terminus.

    The protein has a calculated MW of 14.4 kDa. The protein migrates as 13-15 kDa when calibrated against Star Ribbon Pre-stained Protein Marker under reducing (R) condition (SDS-PAGE) due to glycosylation.

  • Labeling

    Biotinylation of this product is performed using Avitag™ technology. Briefly, the single lysine residue in the Avitag is enzymatically labeled with biotin.

  • Protein Ratio

    Passed as determined by the HABA assay / binding ELISA.

  • Purity

    >90% as determined by SDS-PAGE.

  • Formulation

    Lyophilized from 0.22 μm filtered solution in 50 mM HAC, pH3.0 with trehalose as protectant.

Background

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.
