Description
Human CTGF / CCN2 Protein, Fc Tag | GTF-H5253-1mg| Gentaur Distribution US, UK & Europe
Connective Tissue Growth Factor (CTGF), also known as CCN2, is a member of the CCN (CCN1-6) family of modular matricellular proteins. Like other CCN proteins, mature human CTGF consists of IGF-binding protein domain, a vWF-C domain, a TSP-1 domain, and a cysteine knot heparin-binding domain. CTGF promotes proliferation and differentiation of chondrocytes. Mediates heparin- and divalent cation-dependent cell adhesion in many cell types including fibroblasts, myofibroblasts, endothelial and epithelial cells. Enhances fibroblast growth factor-induced DNA synthesis. Analysis of CCN2 function in vivo has focused primarily on its key role as a mediator of excess ECM synthesis in multiple fibrotic diseases.
Source: Human CTGF, Fc Tag (GTF-H5253) is expressed from human 293 cells (HEK293). It contains AA Gln27-Ala349 (Accession # Q5M8T4-1 ).
