Product Overview
| Tag | Fc |
| Host Species | Cynomolgus |
| Background | ACVR2A and ACVR2B are two activin type II receptors. ACVR2B is integral to the activin and myostatin signaling pathway. Ligands such as activin and myostatin bind to ACVR2A and ACVR2B. Myostatin, a negative regulator of skeletal muscle growth, is regarded as a potential therapeutic target and binds to ACVR2B effectively, and to a lesser extent, to ACVR2A. The structure of human ACVR2B kinase domain in complex with adenine establishes the conserved bilobal architecture consistent with all other catalytic kinase domains. Haplotype structure at the ACVR2B and follistatin loci may contribute to interindividual variation in skeletal muscle mass and strength. Defects in ACVR2B are a cause of left-right axis malformations. |
| Description | A DNA sequence encoding the cynomolgus ACVR2B (EHH16502.1) (Ser28-Thr143) was expressed with the Fc region of human IgG1 at the C-terminus. |
| Source | HEK293 |
| Predicted N Terminal | Ser 28 |
| AA Sequence | Ser28-Thr143 |
| Molecular Weight | The recombinant cynomolgus ACVR2B comprises 357 a.a. and has a calculated molecular mass of 40.3 KDa.The apparent molecular mass of the protein is approximately 54-62 KDa in SDS-PAGE. |
| Purity | >90% as determined by SDS-PAGE |
| Endotoxin | < 1.0 EU per μg of the protein as determined by the LAL method |
| Bioactivity | Measured by its ability to neutralize Activin-mediated inhibition on MPC11 cell proliferation.The ED50 for this effect is typically 10-40 ng/mL in the presence of 10 ng/mL recombinant Activin A. |
| Formulation | Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4.. |
| Stability | The recombinant proteins are stable for up to 1 year from date of receipt at -70°C. |
| Usage | For Research Use Only |
| Storage | Store the protein under sterile conditions at -20°C to -80°C. It is recommended that the protein be aliquoted for optimal storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. |
