Growth Hormone Binding Protein Human Recombinant ( GHBP Human )

Growth Hormone Binding Protein Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 248 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 28107.01 Dalton. GHR is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Greater than 98.0% as determined by:(a) Analysis by SEC-HPLC.(b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE.

GHBP is a transmembrane receptor for growth hormone. Binding of growth hormone to the receptor leads to receptor dimerization and the activation of an intra- and intercellular signal transduction pathway leading to growth. A common alternate allele of this gene, called GHRd3, lacks exon three and has been well-characterized. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Laron syndrome, also known as the growth hormone insensitivity syndrome (GHIS), a disorder characterized by short stature. Other splice variants, including one encoding a soluble form of the protein (GHRtr), have been observed but have not been thoroughly characterized.

Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.

GHBP is fully biologically active as evidenced by its ability of forming 2:1 complex with HGH.
