Follistatin, mouse recombinant
Follistatin is an autocrine acting protein that is expressed by many tissues, but at noteably higher levels in the ovary and skin. Follistatin functions to negatively regulate the signaling of a wide variety of TGF-beta family members (activin, BMPs, myostatin, GDF-11 and TGF-beta 1). Mechanistically, follistatin works as an antagonist by complexing with TGF-beta family members to prevent them from interacting with their signaling receptors. Recombinant human Follistatin is a non-glycosylated protein.
