Activin-A Human Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 137 amino acids (311-426) and having a molecular mass of 15.2kDa.Activin-A is fused to a 20 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Inhibins are dimeric peptide hormones produced by female ovarian granulose cells and male Sertoli cells as well as a variety of other tissues. Inhibins have two isoforms, A and B, with the same alpha subunit but different beta subunits. Inhibin A is a dimer of alpha and beta A subunits, inhibin B is a dimer of alpha and beta B subunits.Inhibins are thought to inhibit the production of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) by the pituitary gland. In addition, Inhibins are also thought to play a role in the control of gametogenesis, and embryonic and fetal development.
