Description: Thrombopoietin (THPO), also known as megakaryocyte growth and development factor (MGDF), is a protein that in humans is encoded by the THPO gene. Megakaryocytopoiesis is the cellular development process that leads to platelet production. The main functional protein encoded by this gene is a humoral growth factor that is necessary for megakaryocyte proliferation and maturation, as well as for thrombopoiesis. This protein is the ligand for MLP/C_MPL, the product of myeloproliferative leukemia virus oncogene. Mutations in this gene are the cause of thrombocythemia 1. Alternative promoter usage and differential splicing result in multiple transcript variants differing in the 5' UTR and/or coding region. Multiple AUG codons upstream of the main open reading frame (ORF) have been identified, and these upstream AUGs inhibit translation of the main ORF at different extent.

Immunogen: Amino acids DFSLGEWKTQMEETKAQDILGAVTLLLEGVMAARGQL were used as the immunogen for the Thrombopoietin antibody.

Storage: After reconstitution, the Thrombopoietin antibody can be stored for up to one month at 4oC. For long-term, aliquot and store at -20 °C. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
