Description
Description: C19ORF80 Mouse Recombinant produced in E Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain (a.a 16-198) containing 193 amino acids including a 10 a.a N-terminal His tag. The total molecular mass is 21.8kDa (calculated).
Introduction: Chromosome 19 Open Reading Frame 80 (C19ORF80) is a significant new regulator of lipid metabolism which regulates serum triglyceride levels, possibly by promoting ANGPTL3 cleavage. C19ORF80 belongs to the ANGPTL protein family. C19ORF80 is a hormone which specifically promotes pancreatic beta cell proliferation and beta cell mass expansion, thus improving glucose tolerance. C19ORF80 is mainly expressed in the liver; it is also expressed in adipose tissues. C19ORF80 is expressed in response to food intake and stimulated by insulin
