Host	Human Cells
Synonyms	C730040N12Rik,Tbg
Molecular Weight	The secreted recombinant mouse SERPINA7comprises 409 amino acids and has a predicted molecular mass of 46.2 kDa. As a result of glycosylation, it migrates as an approximately 55-60 kDa band in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions.
predicted N	Ala 21
SDS-PAGE
Purity	> 97 % as determined by SDS-PAGE
Protein Construction	A DNA sequence encoding the mouse SERPINA7 (NP_808588.3) (Met 1-Gln 418) was fused with a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus.
Bio-activity
Research Area	Signaling |Signal Transduction |Hormones
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	Thyroxine-binding globulin, also known as T4-binding globulin, Serpin A7 and TBG, is a secreted protein which belongs to the serpin family. TBG is synthesized primarily in the liver as a 54 kDa protein.TBG is genomically a serpin, although it has no inhibitory function like many other members of this class of proteins. TBG binds thyroid hormone in circulation. It is one of three proteins (along with transthyretin and albumin) responsible for carrying the thyroid hormones thyroxine (T4) and 3,5,3’-triiodothyronine (T3) in the bloodstream. Of these three proteins, TBG has the highest affinity for T4 and T3, but is present in the lowest concentration. Despite its low concentration, TBG carries the majority of T4 in serum. Due to the very low serum concentration of T4 and T3, TBG is rarely more than 25% saturated with its ligand. Unlike transthyretin and albumin, TBG has a single binding site for T4/T3. TBG tests are sometimes used in finding the reason for elevated or diminished levels of thyroid hormone.
