Introduction
Growth hormone receptor, also known as GHR is part of the cytokine
receptor family.? GHR binds 2 receptor
molecules and in this manner induces signal transduction through receptor
dimerization. Furthermore, at high concentrations, growth hormone performs as
an antagonist since there is a large difference in affinities at the respective
s. The antagonist action can be enhanced further by reducing
binding in the low affinity .
Description
GHBP produced in Sf9 Insect cells is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 254 amino acids (19-264a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 29.4kDa (Molecular size on SDS-PAGE will appear at approximately 28-40kDa).
GHBP is expressed with an 8 amino acid His tag at C-Terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Source
