Background: Repulsive guidance molecule A (RGMA) is a cell membrane protein and belongs to the repulsive guidance molecule (RGM) family. It interacts with NEO1, BMP2 and BMP4. RGMA is a glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored glycoprotein that functions as an axon guidance protein in the developing and adult central nervous system. It helps guide Retinal Ganglion Cell (RGC) axons to the tectum in the midbrain. RGMa has been implicated to play an important role in the developing brain and in the scar tissue that forms after a brain injury. This protein may also function as a tumor suppressor in some cancers.

Alternate Names: Repulsive guidance molecule A; RGM domain family member A; RGM

Description: Recombinant Human Repulsive Guidance Molecule A is produced by our E.coli expression system and the target gene encoding Pro169-Gly422 is expressed with a 6His tag at the N-terminus.
