Note: |
STRICTLY FOR FURTHER RESEARCH USE ONLY (RUO). MUST NOT TO BE USED IN DIAGNOSTIC OR THERAPEUTIC APPLICATIONS. |
Short Description: |
Recombinant-Human IGFBP-3-protein was developed from cho cells. For use in research applications. |
Conjugation: |
Unconjugated |
Formulation: |
Lyophilised from 0.2 Mu m filtered PBS solution. |
Dilution Range: |
Spin the vial and reconstite in distilled water to a concentration not less than 0.1 mg/mL. This can then be diluted into other buffers. |
Storage Instruction: |
Can be stored in working aliquots at 2°C-8°C C for one month, or at-20°C C for six months, with a carrier protein without detectable loss of activity. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles. NA |
Endotoxin: |
Endotoxin content was assayed using a LAL gel clot method. Endotoxin level was found to be less than 0.1 ng/µg (1EU/µg). NA |
Immunoreactivity: |
The ED (50) was determined by the ability toinhibit IGF-II induced proliferation of MCF-7 and was foundto be≤ 0.2 Mu g/ml in the presence of 15 ng/ml human IGF-II. NA |
Gene Symbol: |
IGFBP3 |
Gene ID: |
3486 |
Uniprot ID: |
IBP3_HUMAN |
Immunogen Region: |
Mature chain |
Immunogen: |
Optimized DNA sequence encoding HumanIGFBP-3 mature chain fused to an N-terminal His tag was expressed in CHO Cells. NA |
Immunogen Sequence: |
NA |
Tissue Specificity | Expressed by most tissues. Present in plasma. |
Post Translational Modifications | Phosphorylated by FAM20C in the extracellular medium. Phosphorylated by CK2.resulting in decreased nuclear localization. |
Function | Multifunctional protein that plays a critical role in regulating the availability of IGFs such as IGF1 and IGF2 to their receptors and thereby regulates IGF-mediated cellular processes including proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis in a cell-type specific manner. Also exhibits IGF-independent antiproliferative and apoptotic effects mediated by its receptor TMEM219/IGFBP-3R. Inhibits the positive effect of humanin on insulin sensitivity. Promotes testicular germ cell apoptosis. Acts via LRP-1/alpha2M receptor, also known as TGF-beta type V receptor, to mediate cell growth inhibition independent of IGF1. Mechanistically, induces serine-specific dephosphorylation of IRS1 or IRS2 upon ligation to its receptor, leading to the inhibitory cascade. In the nucleus, interacts with transcription factors such as retinoid X receptor-alpha/RXRA to regulate transcriptional signaling and apoptosis. |
