Alternate Names for GDF-11/GDF-8 Antibody (84214) [Unconjugated]

• GDF-11/GDF-8

Background

GDF-8, also known as Myostatin, belongs to the TGF-beta superfamily. It is synthesized as an inactive proprotein with the N-terminal pro-region and the C-terminal mature bioactive region. The GDF-8 proregion is capable of associating with active GDF-8 with high affinity and is a potent GDF-8 antagonist.

Limitations

This product is for research use only and is not approved for use in humans or in clinical diagnosis. Primary Antibodies are guaranteed for 1 year from date of receipt.
