Active Recombinant Human ACVR1B Protein, GST-tagged

• Cat.No.: ACVR1B-249H
• Product Overview: Human ACVR1B (NP_004293.1, 150 a.a. - 505 a.a.) partial recombinant protein with GST tag expressed in baculovirus infected Sf21 cells.

Specification

• Description: This gene encodes an activin A type IB receptor. Activins are dimeric growth and differentiation factors which belong to the transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) superfamily of structurally related signaling proteins. Activins signal through a heteromeric complex of receptor serine kinases which include at least two type I and two type II receptors. This protein is a type I receptor which is essential for signaling. Mutations in this gene are associated with pituitary tumors. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, Jun 2010]
