Mouse Anti-Human TGF-beta1
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a member of the transforming growth factor beta (TGFB) family of cytokines, which are multifunctional peptides that regulate proliferation, differentiation, adhesion, migration, and other functions in many cell types. Many cells have TGFB receptors, and the protein positively and negatively regulates many other growth factors. The secreted protein is cleaved into a latency-associated peptide (LAP) and a mature TGFB1 peptide, and is found in either a latent form composed of a TGFB1 homodimer, a LAP homodimer, and a latent TGFB1-binding protein, or in an active form composed of a TGFB1 homodimer. The mature peptide may also form heterodimers with other TGFB family members. This gene is frequently upregulated in tumor cells, and mutations in this gene result in Camurati-Engelmann disease.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]
Uniprot Description
Function: Multifunctional protein that controls proliferation, differentiation and other functions in many cell types. Many cells synthesize TGFB1 and have specific receptors for it. It positively and negatively regulates many other growth factors. It plays an important role in bone remodeling as it is a potent stimulator of osteoblastic bone formation, causing chemotaxis, proliferation and differentiation in committed osteoblasts.
Subunit structure: Homodimer; disulfide-linked, or heterodimer with TGFB2
By similarity. Secreted and stored as a biologically inactive form in the extracellular matrix in a 290 kDa complex (large latent TGF-beta1 complex) containing the TGFB1 homodimer, the latency-associated peptide (LAP), and the latent TGFB1 binding protein-1 (LTBP1). The complex without LTBP1 is known as the'small latent TGF-beta1 complex'. Dissociation of the TGFB1 from LAP is required for growth factor activation and biological activity. Release of the large latent TGF-beta1 complex from the extracellular matrix is carried out by the matrix metalloproteinase MMP3
By similarity. May interact with THSD4; this interaction may lead to sequestration by FBN1 microfibril assembly and attenuation of TGFB signaling. Interacts with the serine proteases, HTRA1 and HTRA3: the interaction with either inhibits TGFB1-mediated signaling. The HTRA protease activity is required for this inhibition
By similarity. Latency-associated peptide interacts with NREP; the interaction results in a decrease in TGFB1 autoinduction
By similarity. Interacts with CD109, DPT and ASPN. Ref.12 Ref.15 Ref.17
Subcellular location: Secreted › extracellular space › extracellular matrix Ref.17.
Tissue specificity: Highly expressed in bone. Abundantly expressed in articular cartilage and chondrocytes and is increased in osteoarthritis (OA). Colocalizes with ASPN in chondrocytes within OA lesions of articular cartilage. Ref.13 Ref.17
Induction: Activated in vitro at pH below 3.5 and over 12.5.
Domain: The 'straitjacket' and 'arm' domains encircle the growth factor monomers and are fastened together by strong bonding between Lys-56 and Tyr-103/Tyr-104. Activation of TGF-beta1 requires the binding of integrin alpha-V to an RGD sequence in the prodomain and exertion of force on this domain, which is held in the extracellular matrix by latent TGF-beta binding proteins. The sheer physical force unfastens the straitjacket and releases the active growth factor dimer
By similarity.
Post-translational modification: Glycosylated.The precursor is cleaved into mature TGF-beta-1 and LAP, which remains non-covalently linked to mature TGF-beta-1 rendering it inactive.
Polymorphism: In post-menopausal Japanese women, the frequency of Leu-10 is higher in subjects with osteoporosis than in controls.
Involvement in disease: Camurati-Engelmann disease (CE) [MIM:131300]: Autosomal dominant disorder characterized by hyperostosis and sclerosis of the diaphyses of long bones. The disease typically presents in early childhood with pain, muscular weakness and waddling gait, and in some cases other features such as exophthalmos, facial paralysis, hearing difficulties and loss of vision.Note: The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. Ref.23 Ref.24 Ref.26 Ref.27 Ref.28
Sequence similarities: Belongs to the TGF-beta family.

Product Notes
The TGF-beta1 tgfb1 (Catalog #AAA690204) is an Antibody produced from Mouse and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Mouse Anti-Human TGF-beta1 reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. ELISA: To detect hTGF-beta 1 by direct ELISA (using 100ul/well antibody solution) a concentration of at least 5ug/ml of this antibody is required. This monoclonal antibody, in conjunction with compatible secondary reagents, allows the detection of at least 0.2 ng/well of recombinant hTGF-beta 1. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the TGF-beta1 tgfb1 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "TGF-beta1, Monoclonal Antibody" 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
