Description
IGFBP-2, also known as insulin-like growth factor binding protein 2, is a member of IGFBP superfamily. IGFBPs modulate the biological activities of IGF proteins and have a high affinity for IGFs. IGFBPs are not merely carrier proteins for IGFs, but hold a central position in IGF ligand-receptor interactions through influences on both the bioavailability and distribution of IGFs in the extracellular environment. During development, IGFBP-2 is expressed in a number of tissues. The highest expression level is found in the central nervous system. In adults, high expression levels are also detected in the central nervous system and in a number of reproductive tissues.This protein binds preferentially to IGF-2, exhibiting a 2 - 10 fold higher affinity for IGF-2 than for IGF-1. Also, it is overexpressed in many malignancies and is often correlated with an increasingly malignant status of the tumor, pointing to the potential involvement of IGFBP-2 in tumorigenesis. Recombinant mouse IGFBP-2, fused to His-tag at C-terminus, was expressed in HEK293 cell and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques.
