BTC Human, HEK

Betacellulin isoform 1, Probetacellulin, Betacellulin, BTC

BTC is a potent mitogen for retinal pigment epithelial cells and vascular smooth muscle cells. The effects of betacellulin are mediated by the EGF receptor and other related receptors.

BTC Human Recombinant produced in HEK293 cells is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain (32-111 a.a) containing 86 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 9.8kDa.
BTC is fused to a 6 amino acid His-tag at C-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
