Biotinylated Human MSLN/Mesothelin (His-Avi Tag)

Mesothelin, also known as CAK1 and ERC, is derived from a 70 kDa precursor that also includes Megakaryocyte Potentiating Factor (MPF). MPF is a cytokine that potentiates IL-3 induced megakaryocyte colony formation. This recombinant human Mesothelin lacks the 8 aa insertion, and within aa 296-580 it shares 59% sequence identity with mouse and rat Mesothelin. Mesothelin is normally expressed on mesothelial cells in the pleura, pericardium, and peritoneum as well as in the developing and postnatal pancreas. It is upregulated in mesotheliomas and a range of carcinomas and adenomas. Mesothelin promotes tumor cell proliferation, migration, anchorage-independent growth, and tumor progression.  Specifications Synonyms MSLN; CAK1; Mesothelin; MPF; MPFSMRP; SMR Uniprot No. Q13421.2 Source Recombinant Biotinylated Human MSLN/Mesothelin Protein is expressed from HEK293 Cells with His tag and Avi tag at the C-terminal.
