HGFR/c-Met Protein, Human, Recombinant (aa 956-1390, His & GST)

1. The specific activity was determined to be 10 nmol/min/mg using MBP as substrate. 2. Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. Immobilized human HGFR (aa 956-1390) at 10 μg/ml (100 μl/well) can bind biotinylated human HGF-his with a linear range of 15.6-125 ng/ml.

HGFR/c-Met Protein, Human, Recombinant (aa 956-1390, His & GST) is expressed in Baculovirus insect cells with His and GST tag. The predicted molecular weight is 76.8 kDa and the accession number is P08581-1.

Hepatocyte growth factor receptor (HGFR), also known as c-Met or mesenchymal-epithelial transition factor (MET), is a receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) that is overexpressed and/or mutated in a variety of malignancies. HGFR protein is produced as a single-chain precursor, and HGF is the only known ligand. Normal HGF/HGFR signaling is essential for embryonic development, tissue repair, or wound healing, whereas aberrantly active HGFR has been strongly implicated in tumorigenesis, particularly in the development of invasive and metastatic phenotypes. HGFR protein is a multifaceted regulator of growth, motility, and invasion, and is normally expressed by cells of epithelial origin. Preclinical studies suggest that targeting aberrant HGFR signaling could be an attractive therapy in cancer.Cancer ImmunotherapyImmune CheckpointImmunotherapyTargeted Therapy
