Alpha-Fetoprotein Protein, Canine (HEK293, His)

Alpha-Fetoprotein binds copper, nickel, and fatty acids, displaying particular affinity for bilirubin, albeit less efficiently than serum albumin. Its structural variations, including dimeric and trimeric forms, alongside the monomeric state, contribute to the protein's versatile functionality. This complexity in molecular interactions with diverse ligands underscores Alpha-Fetoprotein's significance in various physiological processes. Alpha-Fetoprotein Protein, Canine (HEK293, His) is the recombinant canine-derived Alpha-Fetoprotein protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-His labeled tag.
