TMEFF1 Human Recombinant produced in E. coli is a single polypeptide chain containing 314 amino acids (40-330) and having a molecular mass of 33.9kDa. TMEFF1 is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
TMEFF1 is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein which includes 2 follistatin modules and an EGF domain in its extracellular domain, a transmembrane domain and a short cytoplasmic tail. The extracellular domain of TMEFF1 can be released as a soluble protein. TMEFF1 is primarily expressed in brain, but is downregulated in brain neoplasms. TMEFF1 selectively regulates nodal but not activin signaling through direct binding to the nodal co-receptor, Cripto. TMEFF inhibits NODAL and BMP signaling through neural patterning and also a possible tumor suppressor in brain cancers.
