Related Product Information for GDF-15/MIC-1 active protein
GDF-15 belongs to the TGF-beta cytokine family whose members play an important role during prenatal development and postnatal growth, remodeling and maintenance of a variety of tissues and organs. GDF-15 is expressed predominantly in placenta and to a much lesser extent in various other tissues. The presence of GDF-15 in amniotic fluid and its elevated levels in the sera of pregnant women suggest a role for GDF-15 in gestation and embryonic development. GDF-15 generally exerts tumor suppressive activities and is one of the predominant factors produced and secreted in response to activation of the p53 pathway. Interestingly, the serum level of GDF-15 is positively correlated with neoplastic progression of several tumor types, including certain colorectal, pancreatic, and prostate cancers. Human GDF-15/MIC-1 is a disulfide linked homodimeric protein consisting of two 114 amino-acid polypeptide chains.

NCBI Description

Bone morphogenetic proteins (e.g., BMP9; MIM 605120) are members of the transforming growth factor-beta (see TGFB1; MIM 190180) superfamily and regulate tissue differentiation and maintenance. They are synthesized as precursor molecules that are processed at a dibasic cleavage site to release C-terminal domains containing a characteristic motif of 7 conserved cysteines in the mature protein.[supplied by OMIM, Oct 2009]

Uniprot Description

Function: Involved in the transport of chloride ions. May regulate bicarbonate secretion and salvage in epithelial cells by regulating the SLC4A7 transporter

By similarity. RuleBase RU000684

Catalytic activity: ATP + H2O = ADP + phosphate. RuleBase RU000684

Sequence similarities: Belongs to the ABC transporter superfamily. ABCC family. CFTR transporter (TC 3.A.1.202) subfamily. [View classification] RuleBase RU000684Contains 2 ABC transmembrane type-1 domains. RuleBase RU000684Contains 2 ABC transporter domains. RuleBase RU000684

Product Notes

The GDF-15/MIC-1 cftr (Catalog #AAA691500) is an Active Protein produced from Cell Culture and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Human GDF-15/MIC-1 reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. The amino acid sequence is listed below: ARNGDHCPLG PGRCCRLHTV RASLEDLGWA DWVLSPREVQ VTMCIG ACPS QFRAANMHAQ IKTSLHRLKP DTVPAPCCVP ASYNPMVLIQ K TDTGVSLQT YDDLLAKDCH CI. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "GDF-15/MIC-1, Active Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
