Recombinant Human SDF-1 Beta/CXCL12 Beta protein

Recombinant Human SDF-1 Beta/CXCL12 Beta protein

• Background: CXCL12 also known as SDF-1 is belonging to the CXC chemokine family. It is encoded by the CXCL12 gene. In recently study, Human CXCL12 is expressed as six isoforms that differ only in the C-terminal tail. And all SDF-1 isoforms undergo proteolytic processing of the first two N-terminal amino acids. In all SDF-1 isoforms, SDF-1β is the canonical sequence. It has the complete amino acids in the C-terminal tail. On the cell surface, the receptor for this chemokine is CXCR4 and syndecan4. CXCL12 is strongly chemotactic for T-lymphocytes, monocytes, but not neutrophils. CXCL12 is a very important factor in carcinogenesis and the neovascularisation linked to tumor progression.
