StorageThe shelf life is related to many factors, storage state, buffer ingredients, storage temperature and the stability of the protein itself.
Generally, the shelf life of liquid form is 6 months at -20˚C/-80˚C. The shelf life of lyophilized form is 12 months at -20˚C/-80˚C.
Application Details
Greater than 90% as determined by SDS-PAGE.

Background
Potent circulating inhibitor of angiogenesis. Could be involved in bone formation. Signals through the type I activin receptor ACVRL1 but not other Alks. Signaling through SMAD1 in endothelial cells requires TGF-beta coreceptor endoglin/ENG.
