Overview

  • Product nameTGF beta 2 protein (Active)See all TGF beta 2 proteins and peptides ...
  • Protein descriptionRecombinant full length Human TGF beta 2 (amino acids 303-414) expressed in A293 cells; 25 kDa; composed of two identical 112 amino acid polypeptide chains linked by a single disulfide bond (SwissProt P61812).
  • Expression hostHEK 293 cells
  • Properties

  • Purity> 95 % by SDS-PAGE
  • Purification notesPurity is greater than 98% by SDS-PAGE gel and HPLC analyses. Endotoxin level is less than 0.1 ng per µg (1EU/µg).
  • Biological activityBiological Activity : Determined by its ability to inhibit the mouse IL-4-dependent proliferation of mouse HT-2 cells. The ED50 was found to be = 0.2 ng/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of = 5 x 106 units/mg.
  • FormLyophilised:Reconstituted TGF beta 2 is stable for at least 3 months when stored in working aliquots with a carrier protein at -20°C. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
  • Storage instructionsStore at -20°C. Stable for 12 months at -20°CThis product is an active protein and may elicit a biological response in vivo, handle with caution.

  • FunctionTGF-beta 2 has suppressive effects on interleukin-2 dependent T-cell growth.
  • Involvement in diseaseNote=A chromosomal aberration involving TGFB2 is found in a family with Peters anomaly. Translocation t(1;7)(q41;p21) with HDAC9.
    Defects in TGFB2 are the cause of Loeys-Dietz syndrome 4 (LDS4) [MIM:614816]. An aortic aneurysm syndrome with widespread systemic involvement. LDS4 is characterized by arterial tortuosity, aortic dissection, intracranial aneurysm and subarachnoid hemorrhage, hypertelorism, bifid uvula, pectus deformity, bicuspid aortic valve, arachnodactyly, scoliosis, foot deformities, dural ectasia, joint hyperflexibility, and thin skin with easy bruising and striae.
  • Sequence similaritiesBelongs to the TGF-beta family.
  • Cellular localizationSecreted.
