MW : 12.8kD. Recombinant Mouse Transforming Growth Factor beta 1 is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Ala279-Ser390 is expressed. Transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF beta1) is the prototype of a growing superfamily of peptide growth factors and plays a prominent role in a variety of cellular processes, including cell-cycle progression, cell differentiation, reproductive function, development, motility, adhesion, neuronal growth, bone morphogenesis, wound healing, and immune surveillance. TGF- beta1, TGF- beta2 and TGF- beta3 signal via the same heteromeric receptor complex, consisting of a ligand binding TGF- beta receptor type II (T betaR-II), and a TGF- beta receptor type I (T betaR-I). Signal transduction from the receptor to the nucleus is mediated via SMADs. TGF- beta expression is found in cartilage, bone, teeth, muscle, heart, blood vessels, haematopoitic cells, lung, kidney, gut, liver, eye, ear, skin, and the nervous system.
