| Formulation |
GDF11 protein solution (1mg/ml) containing 20mM Tris-HCl (pH8.0) and 10% glycerol. |
| Purity |
Greater than 85.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE. |
| Description |
GDF11 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 132 amino acids (299-407a.a) and having a molecular mass of 14.8kDa. GDF11 is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. |
| Protein Background |
GDF-11 belongs to the bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) family and the TGF-beta superfamily. GDF-11 is a central developmental factor which controls muscular and neural development. In adults, GDF-11 encourages cardiac hypertrophy reverse by the revival of cardiomyocytes. |
| Expression host |
Escherichia Coli. |
| Synonyms |
Growth Differentiation Factor 11, BMP11, Bone Morphogenetic Protein 11, BMP-11, GDF-11, Growth/Differentiation Factor 11, Growth/differentiation factor 11. |
| Reagent Appearance |
Sterile Filtered colorless solution. |
| Stability |
Store at 4°C if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks. Store, frozen at -20°C for longer periods of time. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles. |
