Description
Description
Growth/differentiation factor 5 (GDF5) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the GDF5 gene. The protein encoded by this gene is closely related to the bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) family and is a member of the TGF-beta superfamily. This group of proteins is characterized by a polybasic proteolytic processing site which is cleaved to produce a mature protein containing seven conserved cysteine residues. The members of this family are regulators of cell growth and differentiation in both embryonic and adult tissues. Mutations in this gene are associated with acromesomelic dysplasia, HunterThompson type; brachydactyly, type C; and chondrodysplasia, Grebe type. These associations confirm that the gene product plays a role in skeletal development
Specificity
The chicken anti-Human GDF5 antibody specifically detected target derived from human recombinant protein as well as selected cell lysates. Cross reactivity with mouse and rat GDF5 has not yet been tested.
Storage
Store at -20°C, if not intended for use within a month, keep it at 4°C and minimize freezing and thawing when use.
