Activin A, Plant

Alternative Names: Inhibin beta A, Inhba, FSH releasing protein

Activins, part of the TGF? family, are composed of homodimers or heterodimers of different ? subunit isoforms. Activin A, a mature form, consists of two betaA subunits, each with 116 amino acid residues. This protein is involved in various biological activities such as mesoderm induction, neural cell differentiation, bone remodelling, haematopoiesis, and reproductive physiology. Additionally, Activins play a role in the production and regulation of hormones like FSH, LH, GnRH, and ACTH. A variety of cell types have been identified as expressing Activin A, including fibroblasts, endothelial cells, hepatocytes, vascular smooth muscle cells, and others.

Storage Instruction

Lyophilized Activin A although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution Activin A should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.

Sample Prep Instruction

It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Activin A in sterile 18MΩ-cm H₂O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
