Description
GDF-3, human recombinant is available at Gentaur for Next week delivery.
A protein which both inhibits and induces early stages of development in embryos
Biomolecule/Target:
Alternates names: Growth/Differentiation Factor-3
Synonyms: Growth/Differentiation Factor-3
Background Information: GDF-3 is a member of the TGF-β superfamily of growth and differentiation factors, and is highly homologous to GDF-9. Unlike most TGF-β family members, GDF-3 and GDF-9 are not disulfide-linked dimers. GDF-3 is expressed in adult bone marrow, spleen, thymus, and adipose tissue. The expression of GDF-3 is upregulated in high-fat-fed wild-type FABP4/aP2 null mice and was associated with obesity, but not with the related hyperglycemia/hyperinsulinemia which characterizes Type-2 diabetes. Recombinant human GDF-3 contains 114 amino acids polypeptide chains
Reconstitution Instructions: Reconstitute in H₂O to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/ml. The solution can then be diluted into other aqueous buffers
