Related Product Information for Igfbp5 active protein

The superfamily of insulin-like growth factor (IGF) binding proteins include the six high-affinity IGF binding proteins (IGFBP) and several low-affinity binding proteins referred to as IGFBP related proteins (IGFBP-rP). All IGFBP superfamily members are cysteine-rich proteins with conserved cysteine residues, which are clustered in the amino- and carboxy-terminal thirds of the molecule. IGFBPs modulate the biological activities of IGF proteins. Some IGFBPs may also have intrinsic bioactivity that is independent of their ability to bind IGF proteins. Post-translational modifications of IGFBP, including glycosylation, phosphorylation and proteolysis, have been shown to modify the affinities of the binding proteins to IGF.

NCBI Description

may be involved in ovarian folliculogenesis and may play a modulatory role in type I fiber-dominated muscles [RGD]

Uniprot Description

Function: IGF-binding proteins prolong the half-life of the IGFs and have been shown to either inhibit or stimulate the growth promoting effects of the IGFs on cell culture. They alter the interaction of IGFs with their cell surface receptors.

Subcellular location: Secreted.

Tissue specificity: Mostly in kidney.

Sequence similarities: Contains 1 IGFBP N-terminal domain.Contains 1 thyroglobulin type-1 domain.
