- SynonymCCN2,NOV2,HCS24,IGFBP8,IBP-8,IGFBP-8,IGF-binding protein 8
- SourceRhesus macaque CTGF, His Tag (GTF-R52H4) is expressed from human 293 cells (HEK293). It contains AA Gln 27 - Ala 349 (Accession # H9FQD5-1).Predicted N-terminus: Gln 27Request for sequence
- Molecular Characterization
This protein carries a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus.
The protein has a calculated MW of 37.3 kDa. The protein migrates as 40-45 kDa under reducing (R) condition (SDS-PAGE) due to glycosylation.
- EndotoxinLess than 1.0 EU per μg by the LAL method.
- Purity
>90% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
- Formulation
Lyophilized from 0.22 μm filtered solution in 5 mM HAC,100 mM NaCl, pH 5.5. Normally Sucrose is added as protectant before lyophilization.

- BackgroundConnective Tissue Growth Factor (CTGF), also known as CCN2, is a member of the CCN (CCN1-6) family of modular matricellular proteins. Like other CCN proteins, mature human CTGF consists of IGF-binding protein domain, a vWF-C domain, a TSP-1 domain, and a cysteine knot heparin-binding domain. CTGF promotes proliferation and differentiation of chondrocytes. Mediates heparin- and divalent cation-dependent cell adhesion in many cell types including fibroblasts, myofibroblasts, endothelial and epithelial cells. Enhances fibroblast growth factor-induced DNA synthesis. Analysis of CCN2 function in vivo has focused primarily on its key role as a mediator of excess ECM synthesis in multiple fibrotic diseases.
