Mouse ACVR2A / ActrIIa Protein (His Tag)

ActrIIa,Acvr2,TactrII

100ug (NPP1039) Please inquiry

Catalog Number	P50613-M08H
Organism Species	Mouse
Host	Human Cells
Synonyms	ActrIIa,Acvr2,TactrII
Molecular Weight	The secreted recombinant mouse ACVR2A comprises 126 amino acids and has a calculated molecular mass of 14.8 kDa. As a result of glycosylation, the recombinant protein migrates as an approximately 35 kDa band in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions.
predicted N	Ala 20
SDS-PAGE
Purity	> 97 % as determined by SDS-PAGE
Protein Construction	A DNA sequence encoding the extracellular domain of mouse ACVR2A (NP_031422.3) (Met 1-Pro 134) was expressed, with a C-terminal polyhistidine tag.
Bio-activity	Measured by its ability to neutralize Activin-mediated inhibition on MPC11 cell proliferation. The ED₅₀ for this effect is typically 0.6-3 μg/mL in the presence of 10 ng/ml Recombinant Human Activin A.
Research Area	Cancer \|Invasion microenvironment \|Angiogenesis \|Growth Factor & Receptor \|Transforming Growth Factor Beta (TGF-beta) Superfamily \|TGF-beta Superfamily Receptors \|
Formulation	Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4 1. Normally 5 % - 8 % trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween80 are added as protectants before lyophilization. Specific concentrations are included in the hardcopy of COA.
Background	ACVR2A and ACVR2B are two activin type II receptors. ACVR2A has been shown to interact with INHBA, SYNJ2BP and ACVR1B. The bovine ACVR2A gene encodes a protein of 513 amino acids which is highly homologous (approximately 98% identity) to the rat, mouse, and human ACVR2A proteins. Inactivation of ACVR2A is a common event in prostate cancer cells suggesting it may play an important role in the development of prostate cancer. The ACVR2A gene is a putative tumor suppressor gene that is frequently mutated in microsatellite-unstable colon cancers (MSI-H colon cancers). Frameshift mutation of ACVR2A may contribute to MSI-H colon tumorigenesis via disruption of alternate TGF-beta effector pathways.
