Recombinant Human TWSG1 (C-6His)

Description

EnkiLife provides the Recombinant Human TWSG1 (C-6His) protein,aslo know as Twisted Gastrulation Protein Homolog 1,TWSG1,TSG, which features high purity, high activity, and high stability. It can be applied in scientific research, biopharmaceuticals, and other fields.Purity:Greater than 95% as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE;Endotoxin Level:<1 EU/µg as determined by LAL test.;Construction:Recombinant Human Twisted Gastrulation Protein Homolog 1 is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Cys26-Phe223 is expressed with a 6His tag at the C-terminus.Accession:Q9GZX9. Expression Host:Human Cells.Species:Human.Predicted Molecular Mass:23.18 KDa. Background:Twisted Gastrulation Protein Homolog 1 (TWSG1) is a 22 kDa secreted protein that belongs to the twisted gastrulation protein family. Human TWSG1 is synthesized as a 223 aa precursor that contains a 25 aa signal peptide and a 198 aa mature chain. TWSG1 may be involved in dorsoventral axis formation. TWSG1 seems to antagonize BMP signaling by forming ternary complexes with CHRD and BMPs, thereby preventing BMPs from binding to their receptors.TWSG1 can inhibit BMP activity by binding directly to BMP proteins, and can act the anti-BMP function, partly mediated by cleavage and degradation of CHRD, which releases BMPs from ternary complexes. TWSG1 may be an important modulator of BMP-regulated cartilage development, chondrocyte differentiation and thymocyte development.
