TGF beta 2/TGFB2 Protein, Human (HEK293, His)
In the TGF-beta-2 pathway, the TGF beta 2/TGFB2 protein serves as a precursor to latency-associated peptide (LAP) and transforming growth factor beta-2 (TGF-beta-2), regulating their formation. Crucially, TGF-β2/TGFB2 maintains TGF-β-2 in a latent state within the extracellular matrix, forming a non-covalent association with TGF-β-2. TGF beta 2/TGFB2 Protein, Human (HEK293, His) is the recombinant human-derived TGF beta 2/TGFB2 protein, expressed by HEK293, with N-His labeled tag.

Description
In the TGF-beta-2 pathway, the TGF beta 2/TGFB2 protein serves as a precursor to latency-associated peptide (LAP) and transforming growth factor beta-2 (TGF-beta-2), regulating their formation. Crucially, TGF-β2/TGFB2 maintains TGF-β-2 in a latent state within the extracellular matrix, forming a non-covalent association with TGF-β-2. TGF beta 2/TGFB2 Protein, Human (HEK293, His) is the recombinant human-derived TGF beta 2/TGFB2 protein, expressed by HEK293, with N-His labeled tag.
Background
As a central player in the TGF-beta-2 signaling pathway, the TGF beta 2/TGFB2 protein assumes the role of a precursor for both the Latency-associated peptide (LAP) and the Transforming growth factor beta-2 (TGF-beta-2) chains. These chains collectively form the regulatory and active subunits of TGF-beta-2, respectively. Notably, TGF beta 2/TGFB2 is essential for maintaining the TGF-beta-2 chain in a latent state during storage within the extracellular matrix. The protein engages in non-covalent associations with TGF-beta-2, intricately regulating its activation through interactions with 'milieu molecules,' including LTBP1 and LRRC32/GARP. These interactions play a pivotal role in controlling the activation of TGF-beta-2, contributing to the finely tuned regulation of this critical signaling pathway.

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).
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.
