Product Overview
Tag | His |
Host Species | Human |

Synonym | INHBB, MGC157939 |
Background | Activin and inhibin are two closely related protein complexes that have almost directly opposite biological effects. The activin and inhibin protein complexes are both dimeric in structure, and, in each complex, the two monomers are linked to one another by a single disulfide bond. Activin is composed of two β subunits, βA βA (activin A), βB βB (activin B), or βA βB (activin AB). Inhibin is composed of an alpha and one of two β subunits, βA (inhibin A) or βB (inhibin B). Activins are produced in many cell types and organs, such as gonads, pituitary gland, and placenta. In the ovarian follicle, activin increases FSH binding and FSH-induced aromatization. It participates in androgen synthesis enhancing LH action in the ovary and testis. In the male, activin enhances spermatogenesis. In addition, Activin plays a role in wound repair and skin morphogenesis. Activin is strongly expressed in wounded skin, and overexpression of activin in epidermis of transgenic mice improves wound healing and enhances scar formation. Activin also regulates the morphogenesis of branching organs such as the prostate, lung, and kidney. There is also evidence showed that lack of activin during development results in neural developmental defects. |
Description | A DNA sequence encoding the pro form of human INHBB (NP_002184.2) (Met 1-Ala 407) was expressed, fused with a His tag at the C-terminus. |
Source | HEK293 |
Predicted N Terminal | Ser 29 |
AA Sequence | Met 1-Ala 407 |
Molecular Weight | The secreted pro form of human INHBB comprises 390 a.a. with a predicted molecular mass of 43.7 kDa. As a result of glycosylation, the apparent molecular mass of rhINHBB is approximately 17, 42 and 55 kDa in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions, corresponding to the mature form, pro peptide and pro form respectively. |
Purity | >95% as determined by SDS-PAGE |
Endotoxin | < 1.0 EU per μg of the protein as determined by the LAL method |
Bioactivity | Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA.Immobilized human INHBB-His at 10 ug/ml (100 ul/well) can bind biotinylated mouse FLRG-His with a linear range of 0.031-0.125 ug/ml. |
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. |
