PIP Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 141 amino acids (29-146 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 15.9kDa.PIP is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Prolactin-inducible protein (PIP) is a main protein component of benign breast gross cysts. PIP is a famous indicator of breast cancer, since it is found in around 50% of all breast cancer specimens. PIP is expressed in exocrine glands, in pathologic conditions, in breast cysts and breast cancers exhibiting apocrine features. PIP and prostate specific antigen are co-expressed in androgen receptor-positive breast tumours.
