Molecular Mass
RecombinantHuman B7-H1/Fc is a disulfide-linked homodimeric protein. The reduced monomer consists of 459 amino acids and predicts a molecular mass of 52 kDa. As a result of glycosylation, the rh B7-H1/Fc monomer migRates as an approximately 65-70 kDa protein in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions.
Background
Induces cartilage and bone formation. Also act in mesoderm induction, tooth development, limb formation and fracture repair. Acts in concert with PTHLH/PTHRP to stimulate ductal outgrowth during embryonic mammary development and to inhibit hair follicle induction.
