Ligands of this family bind various TGF-beta receptors leading to recruitment and activation of SMAD family transcription factors that regulate gene expression. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate each subunit of the disulfide-linked homodimer. This protein negatively regulates skeletal muscle cell proliferation and differentiation. Mutations in this gene are associated with increased skeletal muscle mass in humans and other mammals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eResearch Areas: Signal transduction; Cancer\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTarget Protein: MSTN\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eApplications: WB, ELISA\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eReactivity: Human\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eClonality: Monoclonal\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHost: Mouse\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIsotype: IgG\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFull Product Name: Growth,differentiation factor 8\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eImmunogen: The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human AMPK alpha around the phosphorylation site of Thr172.
