Purity ~95% (SDS-PAGE, HPLC). Human RELM beta (Resistin-like molecule b/FIZZ2) is a new member to the family of adipocyte secreted proteins called adipocytokines. This family includes the RELMa, RELMb and Resistin molecules. Interestingly, RELM beta and Resistin share similar characteristics such as an additional cysteine residue within the variable N-terminal region and are both homodimeric proteins. However, the RELM beta is expressed only in the gastrointestinal tract; especially the colon, while the Resistin and RELM beta are secreted exclusively by adipocytes. Currently, the biological function of these proteins, as well as their molecular targets is largely unknown. Source: Recombinant protein corresponding to human RELM-beta, a disulfide-linked homodimer consisting of 90aa residue chains, expressed in E. coli. Molecular Weight: ~11kD Endotoxin: <0.1ng/ug
