TDGF1 Protein, Mouse (HEK293, His)

Customer Review

Based on 1 Customer Validation

TDGF1, a GPI-anchored protein, participates in Nodal signaling pathways as a coreceptor in cis. Shedding by Tmem8a dynamically regulates Nodal signaling, releasing soluble TDGF1. This shedding mechanism modulates the Nodal pathway and suggests a role in determining the fate of epiblastic cells, particularly in mesoderm formation. TDGF1 also interacts with ACVR1B, emphasizing its importance in cellular responses. TDGF1 Protein, Mouse (HEK293, His) is the recombinant mouse-derived TDGF1 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-6*His labeled tag.

Description

TDGF1, a GPI-anchored protein, participates in Nodal signaling pathways as a coreceptor in cis. Shedding by Tmem8a dynamically regulates Nodal signaling, releasing soluble TDGF1. This shedding mechanism modulates the Nodal pathway and suggests a role in determining the fate of epiblastic cells, particularly in mesoderm formation. TDGF1 also interacts with ACVR1B, emphasizing its importance in cellular responses. TDGF1 Protein, Mouse (HEK293, His) is the recombinant mouse-derived TDGF1 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-6*His labeled tag.

Background

TDGF1, a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored cell membrane protein, actively participates in Nodal signaling pathways. Functioning as a Nodal coreceptor, TDGF1 operates in cis, and its cell-associated form acts synergistically with the signaling molecule. Notably, shedding of TDGF1 by Tmem8a dynamically regulates Nodal signaling by releasing soluble TDGF1, enabling it to serve as a Nodal coreceptor on neighboring cells. This shedding mechanism introduces a level of modulation to the Nodal pathway. TDGF1's involvement in these signaling cascades suggests a potential role in determining the fate of epiblastic cells, particularly those contributing to the formation of the mesoderm. Additionally, TDGF1 interacts with the activin type-1 receptor ACVR1B, further highlighting its significance in mediating crucial cellular responses.

Verified Bioactivity

Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. When Recombinant Rat Activin RIB is immobilized at 2 µg/mL(100 µL/well) can bind Recombinant Mouse TDGF1. The ED50 for this effect is 61.03 ng/mL.

Product Properties

Appearance

Lyophilized powder.

Formulation

Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.2.

Endotoxin Level

<0.1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.

Reconstitution

It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in PBS. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose).

Storage & Stability

Stored at -20°C for 2 years from date of receipt. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.
