人肿瘤生长因子β3|Human TGF-beta3

Synonyms :

Transforming Growth Factor-beta3

Description :

The three mammalian forms of TGF-β, TGF-β1, β2, β3, signal through the same receptor and elicit similar biological responses. They are multifunctional cytokines that regulate cell proliferation, growth, differentiation, and motility as well as syntehsis and deposition of the extracellular matrix. They are involved in various physiological processes incliding embryogenesis, tissue remodeling and wound healing. They are secreted predominantly as latent complexes which are stored at the cell surface and in the extracellular matrix. The release of biologically active TGF-β isoform from a latent complex involves proteolytic processing of the complex and/or induction of conformational changes by proteins such as thrombospondin-1. The physiological role of TGF-β3 is still unknown but its expression pattern suggests a role in the regulation of certain development processes. Recombinant TGF-β3 is a 25.0 kDa protein composed of two identical 112 amino acid polypeptide chains linked by a single disulfide bond.

Source :

Sf-9 cells

Stability :

The lyophilized protein is stable for at least 2 years from date of receipt at -20⁰C. Reconstituted TGF-β3 is stable for at least 3 months when stored in working aliquots with a carrier protein at -20⁰C. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.

Purity :

Greater than 98% by SDS-PAGE gel and HPLC analyses.

Endotoxin Level :

Endotoxin level is less than 0.1 ng per µg (1EU/µg).

Biological Activity :

Determined by its ability to inhibit the mouse IL-4-dependent proliferation of mouse HT-2 cells. The ED₅₀ was found to be ≤ 0.05 ng/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of ≥ 2 x 10⁷ units/mg.
