Product Details
- Molecular Aliases
- INHBA; Activin A;
- Protein Length
- Gly311-Ser426
- Expression System

- Purity
- > 95% as determined by Bis-Tris PAGE
- Endotoxin
- Less than 1 EU per μg by the LAL method.
- Buffer / Formulation
- Supplied as 0.22 μm filtered solution in 4mM HCL.
- State
- Liquid
- Storage Conditions
- Valid for 12 months from date of receipt when stored at -80°C. Recommend to aliquot the protein into smaller quantities for optimal storage. Please minimize freeze-thaw cycles.

Background
Activin-A, a member of the TGF-β superfamily, Extensive research over the past decades illuminated fundamental roles for activin-A in essential biologic processes, including embryonic development, stem cell maintenance and differentiation, haematopoiesis, cell proliferation and tissue fibrosis. Activin-A signals through two type I and two type II receptors which, upon ligand binding, activate their kinase activity, phosphorylate the SMAD2 and 3 intracellular signaling mediators that form a complex with SMAD4, translocate to the nucleus and activate or silence gene expression.
