IGF-1 Recombinant Protein

• Description:

  IGF-1 is a small protein secreted mainly but not solely by the liver and circulating in blood mostly as a complex with various IGF binding proteins in the blood. It has growth-regulating, insulin-like, and mitogenic activities and it is secreted in response to growth hormone stimulation. Recombinant rat IGF-I produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 71 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 7.6 kDa.
