Cat.No.
CSC-CTK0027
Description
Insulin-like growth factor II (IGF-2) and IGF-I are family members of insulin-like growth factors that are structurally homologous to proinsulin, and share approximately 70% sequence identity. IGF-2 is expressed in many tissues and autocrine, paracrine and endocrine functions have been reported. Mature IGF-2 is highly conserved and has cross-species reactivity. Two specific cell surface receptors, type I IGF and type II IGF receptors, that bind IGF-1 and IGF-2 have been identified. Recombinant mouse IGF-2 contains 67 amino acids and has a predicted molecular mass of 7.4 kDa.
Species
