Product Overview
Description | Recombinant Human Progonadoliberin-2 is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Gln24-Val120 is expressed with a 6His tag at the C-terminus. |
Accession | O43555 |
Synonym | Progonadoliberin-2; Progonadoliberin II; Gonadoliberin-2; Gonadoliberin II; Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone II; GnRH II; Luliberin II; Luteinizing Hormone-Releasing Hormone II; LH-RH II; GnRH-Associated Peptide 2; GnRH-Associated Peptide II; GNRH2 |
Gene Background | Progonadoliberin-2, also known as Progonadoliberin II and GNRH2, belongs to the gonadotropin-releasing hormone family. GNRH2 is specially expressed in midbrain, at significantly higher levels outside the brain (up to 30-fold). GNRH2 can be cleaved into two chains, gonadoliberin-2 and GnRH-associated peptide 2. gonadoliberin-2 regulates reproduction in females by stimulating the secretion of both luteinizing- and follicle-stimulating hormones. The proproteins produce three transcript variants, but produce the same peptide hormone. |
Molecular Mass | 11.6 KDa |
Apmol Mass | 14-25 KDa, reducing conditions |
Formulation | Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4. |
Endotoxin | Less than 0.1 ng/µg (1 EU/µg) as determined by LAL test. |
Purity | Greater than 95% as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE. (QC verified) |
Biological Activity | Not tested |
Reconstitution | Always centrifuge tubes before opening. Do not mix by vortex or pipetting. It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100μg/ml. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water. Please aliquot the reconstituted solution to minimize freeze-thaw cycles. |
Storage | Lyophilized protein should be stored at ≤ -20°C, stable for one year after receipt. Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 2-8°C for 2-7 days. Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at ≤ -20°C for 3 months. |
Shipping | The product is shipped at ambient temperature. Upon receipt, store it immediately at the temperature listed below. |
Usage | For Research Use Only |

Gene Functions References
- GnRHII expression correlated significantly with poor prognosis in breast cancer patients. PMID: 23287110
- results suggest GnRH-II-induced laminin receptor precursor expression increases 67-kDa nonintegrin laminin receptor, which appears to interact with laminin in the extracellular matrix to promote MMP-2 expression and enhance ovarian cancer cell invasion PMID: 21193558
- concluded that GnRHII stimulates PI3K/Akt pathway, and the phosphorylation of glycogen synthase kinase3beta, thereby enhancing the beta-catenin-dependent up-regulation of MT1-MMP production which contributes to ovarian cancer metastasis PMID: 21239435
- These preliminary data suggest that local GnRH-II may participate in the regulation of ovarian tumor growth in post-menopausal women. PMID: 20018426
- a novel mechanism in stimulating basal human GnRH-II gene transcription mediated by cooperative actions of multiple regulatory elements within the untranslated first exon of the gene. PMID: 12663744
- GnRH-II has been identified, together with a 'putative' type II GnRH receptor, both in the central nervous system and in peripheral structures, such as tissues of the reproductive tract (both normal and tumoral). PMID: 14726258
- GnRH-II did not affect proliferation of normal B-cells alone, and did not alter the proliferative response to IL-2. PMID: 15578334
- Expression of GnRH2 protein and receptor (GnRHR2) is confirmed in both leiomyoma and patient-matched myometrium. PMID: 17296196
- these data demonstrate the differential roles of NF-kappaB p65 and RARalpha/RXRalpha, interacting with the same sequence in the promoter of the human GnRH II gene to influence gene expression in a cell-specific manner. PMID: 17451432
- GnRH II is widely expressed in prostate cancer and is an AR-regulated gene. PMID: 17914092
- p-CREB, C/EBPbeta, and CBP are recruited to the CRE of the GnRH-II promoter in a temporarily defined manner to enhance its transcription in JEG-3 and OVCAR-3 cells in response to cAMP PMID: 18599546
- These results provide evidence that EGF is an upstream regulator of the autocrine actions of GnRH-II on the invasive properties of ovarian cancer cells. PMID: 19608641
