Recombinant Mouse Mstn Protein, Myc/DDK-tagged

• Cat.No.: Mstn-4198M
• Product Overview: Purified recombinant protein of mouse full-length myostatin (Mstn), with C-terminal MYC/DDK tag, expressed in HEK293T cells.

Specification

• Description: This gene encodes a secreted ligand of the TGF-beta (transforming growth factor-beta) superfamily of proteins. Ligands of this family bind various TGF-beta receptors leading to recruitment and activation of SMAD family transcription factors that regulate gene expression. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate each subunit of the disulfide-linked homodimer. This protein negatively regulates skeletal muscle cell proliferation and differentiation. Homozygous knockout mice for this gene exhibit increased muscle mass and bone density, and reduced adiposity.
