蛋白结构（Molecular Characterization）
This protein carries a polyhistidine tag at the N-terminus.
The protein has a calculated MW of 13.0 kDa (mature) and 32.0 kDa (pro). As a result of glycosylation and Interchain disulfide bond, the protein migrates as 15 kDa (mature) and 43-48 kDa (pro) under reducing (R) condition, and 27 kDa (mature), 43-48 kDa (pro) and 60 kDa (pro & mature) under non-reducing (NR) condition (SDS-PAGE).
内毒素（Endotoxin）
Less than 1.0 EU per μg by the LAL method.
纯度（Purity）
>95% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
制剂（Formulation）
Lyophilized from 0.22 μm filtered solution in PBS, pH7.4. Normally trehalose is added as protectant before lyophilization.

电泳（SDS-PAGE）
Human Latent Activin A, His Tag on SDS-PAGE under reducing (R) and non-reducing (NR) conditions. The gel was stained overnight with Coomassie Blue. The purity of the protein is greater than 95%.
活性（Bioactivity）-ELISA
Immobilized Human Latent Activin A, His Tag (Cat. No. ACA-H424x) at 10 μg/mL (100 μL/well) can bind Human ACVR2A, Fc Tag (Cat. No. ACA-H5269) with a linear range of 0.6-20 ng/mL (QC tested).
Protocol
活性（Bioactivity）-Cell based assay
The bio-activity of Human Latent Activin A, His Tag (Cat. No. ACA-H424x) was determined by dose-dependent inhibition of the proliferation of MPC-11 cells. The EC50 for this effect is typically 47-66 ng/mL (Routinely tested).
Protocol
背景（Background）
Activin and inhibin are two closely related protein complexes that have almost directly opposite biological effects. Activin enhances FSH biosynthesis and secretion, and participates in the regulation of the menstrual cycle. Many other functions have been found to be exerted by activin, including roles in cell proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis, metabolism, homeostasis, immune response, wound repair, and endocrine function. Conversely inhibin down regulates FSH synthesis and inhibits FSH secretion.Activins are nonglycosylated homodimers or heterodimers of various β subunits (βA, βB, βC, and βE in mammals), while Inhibins are heterodimers of a unique α subunit and one of the β subunits. Activin A is a widely expressed homodimer of two βA chains. The βA subunit can also heterodimerize with a βB or βC subunit to form Activin AB and Activin AC, respectively. The 14 kDa mature human βA chain shares 100% amino acid sequence identity with bovine, feline, mouse, porcine, and rat βA.
