Lefty-A/TGF-beta 4 Protein, Human (HEK293, His)

Cat. No.: HY-P70191
SDS COA Handling Instructions Technical Support

Lefty-A, or TGF-beta 4, plays a crucial role in determining left-right (L-R) asymmetry in mammalian organ systems. Its implication in endometrial bleeding suggests a potential role in reproductive processes, highlighting its significance beyond embryonic development. Lefty-A/TGF-beta 4 Protein, Human (HEK293, His) is the recombinant human-derived Lefty-A/TGF-beta 4 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with N-6*His labeled tag.

Description

Lefty-A, or TGF-beta 4, plays a crucial role in determining left-right (L-R) asymmetry in mammalian organ systems. Its implication in endometrial bleeding suggests a potential role in reproductive processes, highlighting its significance beyond embryonic development. Lefty-A/TGF-beta 4 Protein, Human (HEK293, His) is the recombinant human-derived Lefty-A/TGF-beta 4 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with N-6*His labeled tag.

Background

Lefty-A, also known as TGF-beta 4, is crucial for the determination of left-right (L-R) asymmetry in organ systems within mammals. Its involvement in endometrial bleeding suggests a potential role in reproductive processes, emphasizing its significance beyond embryonic development.

Biological Activity

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.

  • Reconstitution Calculator

  • Dilution Calculator

  • Specific Activity Calculator

The reconstitution calculator equation

Volume (to add to vial) = Mass (in vial) ÷ Desired Reconstitution Concentration

Volume (to add to vial) = Mass (in vial) ÷ Desired Reconstitution Concentration
= ÷

The dilution calculator equation

Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)

This equation is commonly abbreviated as: C1V1 = C2V2

Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)
× = ×
C1   V1   C2   V2

The specific activity calculator equation

Specific Activity (Unit/mg) = 106 ÷ Biological Activity (ED50)

Specific Activity (Unit/mg) = 106 ÷ Biological Activity (ED50)
Unit/mg = 106 ÷ ng/mL
