GDF-7 polyclonal antibody, anti-human

Background:
GDF7 encodes a member of the bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) family. BMPs belong to the transforming growth factor-beta superfamily of secreted signaling molecules that regulate diverse processes in growth, repair and embryonic development. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate the mature protein, which may play a role in the differentiation of tendon cells and spinal cord interneurons. A mutation in this gene may be associated with increased risk for Barrett's esophagus and esophageal adenocarcinoma.

Research Area: Signal Transduction

Synonyms: GDF7, Growth/differentiation factor 7, GDF-7

Immunogen: The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human AMPK alpha around the phosphorylation site of Thr172. AA range:140-189

Purification: The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen.

Formulation: Liquid in PBS containing 50% glycerol, 0.5% BSA and 0.02% sodium azide.

Concentration: 1 mg/ml

Storage:
-20°C for 1 year
