Active Recombinant Human IGF2 Protein

• Cat.No.: IGF2-058H
• Product Overview: The mature recombinant human IGF-II protein containing 70aa (A25-E91) without tag was expressed in E. coli.

Specification

• Description: This gene encodes a member of the insulin family of polypeptide growth factors, which are involved in development and growth. It is an imprinted gene, expressed only from the paternal allele, and epigenetic changes at this locus are associated with Wilms tumour, Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome, rhabdomyosarcoma, and Silver-Russell syndrome. A read-through INS-IGF2 gene exists, whose 5' region overlaps the INS gene and the 3' region overlaps this gene. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
• Source: E. coli
• Species: Human
