Semaphorin 3G (Sema3G), also known as Semaphorin sem2, is a class 3 member of the semaphorin family initially identified as regulators of neuron-axonal guidance. More than 30 semaphorins have been discovered and are divided into eight classes: classes 1 and 4-7 are membrane-associated, while classes 2, 3, and 8 are in a secreted form. In vitro analysis shows Sema 3G binds to Neuropilin-2, which forms a receptor complex with Plexin-D1. Via this pathways Sema 3G controls lymphatic vascular patterning by the means of cellular collapse. It shows protective effects in ischemic retinopathies by coordinating interactions of beta -catenin and VE-Cadherin in endothelium. Sema 3G has been shown to be involved in adipocyte differentiation. Knockdown of Sema3G inhibited weight gain through PI3K/Akt/GSK3 beta signaling in the adipose tissue and the AMPK/SREBP-1c pathway in the liver. Thus, Sema 3G is an adipokine essential for adipogenesis, lipogenesis, and insulin resistance and is associated with obesity.
Lyophilized from a 0.22 µm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4.
Target:
Semaphorin-3G/SEMA3G
Application Dilute:
Lyophilized from a 0.22 µm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4.
Application Notes:
Cross-Reactivity: Centrifuge the vial before opening. Reconstitute to a concentration of 0.1-0.5 mg/mL in sterile distilled water. Avoid vortex or vigorously pipetting the protein. For long term storage,it is recommended to add a carrier protein or stablizer (e.g. 0.1% BSA,5% HSA,10% FBS or 5% Trehalose),and aliquot the reconstituted protein solution to minimize free-thaw cycles., ResearchArea: Other Recombinant Protein
