Product Overview
Tag | Fc |
Host Species | Human |
Accession | NP_001097.2 |
Synonym | Activin RIIB, ActR-IIB, ACTRIIB, HTX4 |
Background | ACVR2A and ACVR2B are two activin type II receptors. ACVR2B is integral to the activin and myostatin signaling pathway. Ligands such as activin and myostatin bind to ACVR2A and ACVR2B. Myostatin, a negative regulator of skeletal muscle growth, is regarded as a potential therapeutic target and binds to ACVR2B effectively, and to a lesser extent, to ACVR2A. The structure of human ACVR2B kinase domain in complex with adenine establishes the conserved bilobal architecture consistent with all other catalytic kinase domains. Haplotype structure at the ACVR2B and follistatin loci may contribute to interindividual variation in skeletal muscle mass and strength. Defects in ACVR2B are a cause of left-right axis malformations. |
Description | A DNA sequence encoding the N-terminal segment (Met 1-Thr 134) from the extracellular domain of human ACVR2B (NP_001097.2) was expressed with the fused human IgG1 Fc region at the C-terminus. |
Source | HEK293 |
Predicted N Terminal | Ser 19 |
AA Sequence | Met 1-Thr 134 |
Molecular Weight | The recombinant human ACVR2B/Fc chimera is a disulfide-linked homodimer generated after removal of the signal peptide. The reduced monomer comprises 354 a.a. and predicts a molecular mass of 40.0 kDa. As a result of glycosylation, the monomer migrates as an approximately 60-65 kDa protein in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions. |
Purity | >97% as determined by SDS-PAGE |
Endotoxin | < 1.0 EU per μg of the protein as determined by the LAL method |
Bioactivity | 1. Measured by its ability to neutralize Activin-mediated inhibition on MPC11 cell proliferation. The ED50 for this effect is typically 0.02-0.1 µg/mL in the presence of 10 ng/mL recombinant Activin A.2. Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. 3. Immobilized human ACVR2B at 10 ug/mL (100 ul/well) can bind biotinylated human INHBA-His, The EC50 of biotinylated human INHBA-His is 0.112 ug/mL.4. Immobilized human ACVR2B at 10 ug/mL (100 ul/well) can bind biotinylated mouse INHBA-His, The EC50 of biotinylated mouse INHBA-His is 0.161 ug/mL. |
Formulation | Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4. |
Stability | The recombinant proteins are stable for up to 1 year from date of receipt at -70°C. |
Usage | For Research Use Only |
Storage | Store the protein under sterile conditions at -20°C to -80°C. It is recommended that the protein be aliquoted for optimal storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. |
