Betacellulin/BTC Protein, Mouse (HEK293, His-hFc)

Betacellulin/BTC Protein, a growth factor with affinity for EGFR, ERBB4, and other EGF receptor family members, exerts potent mitogenic effects on retinal pigment epithelial cells and vascular smooth muscle cells as a monomer. Its molecular activity involves interactions with EGFR and ERBB4, contributing to cellular signaling and regulation. Betacellulin/BTC Protein, Mouse (HEK293, His-hFc) is the recombinant mouse-derived Betacellulin/BTC protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-hFc, C-His labeled tag.
