SCGF-alpha active protein
Human SCGF-alpha
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a member of the C-type lectin superfamily. The encoded protein is a secreted sulfated glycoprotein and functions as a growth factor for primitive hematopoietic progenitor cells. An alternative splice variant has been described but its biological nature has not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Uniprot Description
Function: Stimulates the proliferation and differentiation of hematopoietic precursor cells from various lineages, including erythrocytes, lymphocytes, granulocytes and macrophages. Acts synergistically with other cytokines, including IL-3, GCSF, GMCSF and FLT3 ligand. Suppresses SCF-stimulated erythrocyte proliferation. Ref.7
Subcellular location: Cytoplasm. Secreted Ref.8.
Tissue specificity: Expressed in skeletal tissues including bone marrow, chondrocytes, primary ossification center-associated cells, the perichondrium and periosteum. Lower levels of expression were detected in spleen, thymus, appendix and fetal liver. Ref.1 Ref.2 Ref.7 Ref.8
Developmental stage: In the bone marrow, expression is limited to immature neutrophils. Expression was not detected in circulating mature neutrophils. Ref.8
Post-translational modification: O-glycosylated. Probably sulfated on the O-glycans. Ref.1
Sequence similarities: Contains 1 C-type lectin domain.

It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "SCGF-alpha, 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.Precautions
