Recombinant Human 20 kDa Growth Hormone

• Cat.No.: GH1-77H
• Product Overview: Recombinant 20KDa human growth hormone was purified by FPLC gel-filtration chromatography, after refolding of the isolated inclusion bodies in a renaturation buffer, 20 kDa (177 aa).

Specification

• Cat. No.: GH1-77H
• Description: The 20KDa variant form of human growth hormone (20KDa hGH) presents in extracts from pituitary glands and it differs from the major form of hGH (22K, 191 amino acid) by the deletion of amino acid residues 32-46. The physiological role of 20K hGH remains to be determined partly but it regards the main function as stimulation of somatic and bone growth, as well as an increase in the size and mass of organs and tissues.
