免疫原
The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from the Internal region of human GREM2. AA range:71-120
特异性
The antibody detects endogenous Gremlin-2
组成(Formulation)
Liquid in PBS containing 50% glycerol, 0.5% BSA and 0.02% sodium azide.
纯化工艺(Immunogen)
The antibody was affinity-purified from mouse antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen.
背景(Background)
This gene encodes a member of the BMP (bone morphogenic protein) antagonist family. Like BMPs, BMP antagonists contain cystine knots and typically form homo- and heterodimers. The CAN (cerberus and dan) subfamily of BMP antagonists, to which this gene belongs, is characterized by a C-terminal cystine knot with an eight-membered ring. The antagonistic effect of the secreted glycosylated protein encoded by this gene is likely due to its direct binding to BMP proteins. As an antagonist of BMP, this gene may play a role in regulating organogenesis, body patterning, and tissue differentiation. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008],
