Additional Names:
GDF8, MSLHP, GDF8, Myostatin, GDF-8
Background:
Mature Myostatin is obtained by proteolytic processing of a biologically-inactive precursor protein, which contains an N-terminal propeptide of 243 amino acid residues. Myostatin Propeptide exhibits high binding affinity for myostatin and has been shown to be a potent inhibitor of Myostatin. Over-expression of myostatin propeptide in mice resulted in large increases (up to 200%) in skeletal muscle mass, similar to those observed in Myostatin knockout mice. Recombinant Human Myostatin Propeptide is a 27.8 kDa protein consisting of 244 amino acid residues.
Biological Activity:
Biological activity was determined by its ability to neutralize the Myostatin inhibitory effect of murine MPC - 11 cells. The expected ED50is 0.01 - 0.04 μg/mL in the presence of 50 ng/mL Myostatin.
