• Cat.No.: INHBA-276H
• Product Overview: Recombinant Human Inhibin A is a 264 amino acid, single chain protein, comprising the mature inhibin α and the mature βA chain (α-βA). The protein is expressed in E. coli with an amino-terminal hexahistidine tag.

Specification

• Cat. No.: INHBA-276H
• Description: Inhibins are dimeric peptide hormones produced by female ovarian granulose cells and male Sertoli cells as well as a variety of other tissues. Inhibins have two isoforms, A and B, with the same alpha subunit but different beta subunits. Inhibin A is a dimer of alpha and beta A subunits, inhibin B is a dimer of alpha and beta B subunits. Inhibins are thought to inhibit the production of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) by the pituitary gland. In addition, Inhibins are also thought to play a role in the control of gametogenesis, and embryonic and foetal development.
