- Overview
  - Follistatin Mouse Recombinant produced in E. Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 289 amino acids and having a total molecular mass of 31.6kDa. The FST is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. Follistatin is a single-chain gonadal protein that specifically inhibits follicle-stimulating hormone release. The single FST gene encodes two isoforms, FST317 and FST344 containing 317 and 344 amino acids respectively, resulting from alternative splicing of the precursor mRNA. In a study in which 37 candidate genes were tested for linkage and association with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) or hyperandrogenemia in 150 families, evidence was found for linkage between PCOS and follistatin. Follistatin binds directly to activin and functions as an activin antagonist. specific inhibitor of the biosynthesis and secretion of pituitary follicle stimulating hormone (fsh).

    Purification
    
    Greater than 90.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
    
    Formulation
    
    The Mouse Follistatin is lyophilized from 10mM Na2PO4 and 50mM NaCl, pH 7.5.
    
    Storage
    
    Lyophilized Follistatin although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution FST should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.

- Applications
  - Application Description
    
    It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Follistatin in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions. The ED50, determined by the dose-dependent neutralization of 7.5ng/ml human Activin-A on MCP-11 cells, is 0.13-0.19µg/ml.
