Further Information

Additional Names:
Probetacellulin, BTC
Background:
Betacellulin is an EGF-related polypeptide growth factor that signals through the EGF receptor. It is produced in several tissues, including the pancreas, small intestine, and in certain tumor cells. Betacellulin is a potent mitogen for retinal pigment epithelial cells and vascular smooth muscle cells. Human Betacellulin is initially synthesized as a glycosylated 32.0 kDa transmembrane precursor protein, which is processed by proteolytic cleavage to produce the mature sequence. Recombinant human Betacellulin is a 9.0 kDa monomeric protein, containing 80 amino residues, which comprises the mature EGF homologous portion of the Betacellulin protein.
Biological Activity:
The ED50 was determined by the dose - dependent stimulation of the proliferation of murine Balb/3T3 cells is ≤ 0.05 ng/mL, corresponding to a specific activity of ≥ 2 x 107units/mg.
