Description
Description: TFF-2 Human Recombinant produced in E Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 116 amino acids (24-129) which includes a 10 amino acid His Tag fused at N-terminus and having a total molecular mass of 13.2 kDa. TFF2 Human Recombinant is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Introduction: Proteins of the TFF family are characterized by obtaining a minimum of 1 copy of the trefoil motif, a 40-amino acid domain that contains 3 conserved disulfides. Trefoil Factors are stable secretory proteins expressed in gastrointestinal mucosa which protect the mucosa from insults, stabilize the mucus layer and affect healing of the epithelium.TFF2 inhibits gastric acid motility & secretion. TFF2 stabilizes glycoproteins in the mucus gel through interactions with carbohydrate side chains
