Description
Description: TACSTD2 Human Recombinant produced in Sf9 Baculovirus cells is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 253 amino acids (31-274a.a) and having a molecular mass of 28.6kDa (Molecular size on SDS-PAGE will appear at approximately 28-40kDa). TACSTD2 is fused to a 6 amino acid His-tag at C-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Introduction: Tumor-associated calcium signal transducer 2 (TACSTD2), is a member of to the EPCAM family. TACSTD2 is an intronless gene which encodes a carcinoma-associated antigen. TACSTD2 may act as a growth factor receptor and as a cell surface receptor that transduces calcium signals. Mutations of TACSTD2 have been associated with gelatinous drop-like corneal dystrophy
