Biological Activity

Description

The TDGF1 protein is a GPI-anchored cell membrane protein involved in Nodal signaling. TDGF1 Protein, Rat (HEK293, His) is the recombinant rat-derived TDGF1 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-His labeled tag.

Background

The TDGF1 Protein, a GPI-anchored cell membrane protein, emerges as a key participant in Nodal signaling. Functioning as a Nodal coreceptor in cis, cell-associated CRIPTO, when shed by TMEM8A, dynamically modulates Nodal signaling by enabling soluble CRIPTO to serve as a Nodal coreceptor on neighboring cells. This shedding mechanism contributes to the intricate regulation of Nodal signaling pathways. Moreover, TDGF1 is implicated in the determination of epiblastic cells, which subsequently give rise to the mesoderm, underlining its significance in early developmental processes. Notably, TDGF1 interacts with the activin type-1 receptor ACVR1B, further underscoring its role in mediating critical cellular signaling events.

Product Properties

Appearance

Lyophilized powder.

Endotoxin Level

<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.

Reconstitution

It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH2O. 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.
