Description

ALK-7 Protein, Mouse (HEK293, His) is the recombinant mouse-derived ALK-7 protein, expressed by HEK293, with C-8*His tag.

Background

ALK-7 is a serine/threonine protein kinase that forms a receptor complex upon ligand binding. The receptor complex consists of 2 type II and 2 type I transmembrane serine/threonine kinases. Type II receptors phosphorylate and activate type I receptors, which then autophosphorylate and bind to activate SMAD transcriptional regulators SMAD2 and SMAD3. ALK-7 serves as a receptor for activin AB, activin B, activin E, and NODAL. Upon binding to NODAL, ALK-7 activation leads to increased apoptosis and reduced proliferation by suppressing AKT signaling and activating the Smad2-dependent signaling pathway in pancreatic beta-cells, trophoblasts, epithelial cells, or neuronal cells. Additionally, ALK-7 acts as a positive regulator for macrophage activation, partially by downregulating PPARG expression.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.

The reconstitution calculator equation

Volume (to add to vial) = Mass (in vial) ÷ Desired Reconstitution Concentration

Volume (to add to vial) = Mass (in vial) ÷ Desired Reconstitution Concentration
= ÷

The dilution calculator equation

Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)

This equation is commonly abbreviated as: C1V1 = C2V2

Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)
× = ×

The specific activity calculator equation

Specific Activity (Unit/mg) = 106 ÷ Biological Activity (ED50)

Specific Activity (Unit/mg) = 106 ÷ Biological Activity (ED50)
Unit/mg = 106 ÷ ng/mL
