Background | Sex-hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) is a beta-globulin which specifically binds steroid 60; it is involved in the transport of sex steroids in plasma. The main site of SHBG synthesis is assumed to be the hepatocytes. The production of SHBG is regulated by androgen/estrogen balance, thyroid 60, and dietary factors, among others. The concentration of SHBG is a key factor regulating their distribution between protein-bound and free states. SHBG concentration determination is primarily significant in the evaluation of mild disorders of androgen metabolism and it allows detection of women with hirsutism who are likely to react to estrogen therapy. Testosterone/SHBG-ratios correlate well with both measured and calculated values for free testosterone thus aid to distinguish between subjects with excessive androgen activity and normal individuals. SHBG gene polymorphisms are linked with polycystic ovary syndrome and type 2 diabetes mellitus. |
Description | SHBG Human Recombinant expressed in CHO cells is a single, glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing a total of 428a.a., having a molecular weight of 46.79kDa (calculated), the SHBG is fused to a 6 a.a C-terminal His tag and also includes a myc-epitope.The Human SHBG is purified by unique purification methods. |
