| Application Notes: |
Redissolve: Always centrifuge tubes before opening.Do not mix by vortex or pipetting. It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100µg/ml. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in 4mM HCl. Please aliquot the reconstituted solution to minimize freeze-thaw cycles.. Endotoxin: Less than 0.001 ng/µg (0.01 EU/µg) as determined by LAL test. Biological activity: Immobilized Mouse/Rat TGF-beta 1(CatCK33) at 2µg/ml (100 µl/well) can bind Mouse TGFBR2-His(CatCM05).The ED50 of Mouse TGFBR2-His(CatCM05)is 2.5 ug/ml. Background: Transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGFbeta1) is the prototype of a growing superfamily of peptide growth factors and plays a prominent role in a variety of cellular processes, including cell-cycle progression, cell differentiation, reproductive function, development, motility, adhesion, neuronal growth, bone morphogenesis, wound healing, and immune surveillance. TGF-beta1, TGF-beta2 and TGF-beta3 signal via the same heteromeric receptor complex, consisting of a ligand binding TGF-beta receptor type II (TbetaR-II), and a TGF-beta receptor type I (TbetaR-I). Signal transduction from the receptor to the nucleus is mediated via SMADs. TGF-beta expression is found in cartilage, bone, teeth, muscle, heart, blood vessels, haematopoitic cells, lung, kidney, gut, liver, eye, ear, skin, and the nervous system. |
