Description

The transthyretin/TTR protein is a thyroid hormone binder that may transport thyroxine from the blood to the brain.It exists as a homotetramer forming a dimer of dimers with a ligand-regulated central channel suggested to play a role in thyroxine binding and transport.Transthyretin/TTR Protein, Mouse (HEK293, His) is the recombinant mouse-derived Transthyretin/TTR protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-10*His labeled tag.

Background

Transthyretin/TTR Protein, a thyroid hormone-binding protein, likely facilitates the transport of thyroxine from the bloodstream to the brain. Existing as a homotetramer, it forms a dimer of dimers, with subunits assembling around a central channel capable of accommodating two ligand molecules. This structural arrangement suggests a role in the binding and transport of thyroxine. Furthermore, Transthyretin/TTR Protein interacts with RBP4, indicating potential functional associations and interplay in the context of thyroid hormone regulation. The homotetrameric configuration and ligand-binding capabilities underscore the significance of Transthyretin/TTR in facilitating the transport and distribution of thyroid hormones within the body.

Verified Bioactivity

Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. Immobilized recombinant human TTR-His at 10 μg/mL (100 μL/well) can bind recombinant Canine RBP4, the ED50 for this effect is 1.876 μg/mL.
