Trefoil Factor 2 (TFF2) (AA 24-129) protein (His tag)
Description
Proteins of the TFF family are characterized by obtaining a minimum of 1 copy of the trefoil motif, a 40-AA domain that contains 3 conserved disulfides. Trefoil Factors are stable secretory proteins expressed in gastrointestinal mucosa which protect the mucosa from insults, stabilize the mucus layer and affect healing of the epithelium.TFF2 inhibits gastric acid motility and secretion. TFF2 stabilizes glycoproteins in the mucus gel through interactions with carbohydrate side chains Synonyms: TFF-2, Spasmolytic polypeptide, Spasmolysin, SML1, Trefoil factor 2, SP, TFF2
