Anti-Insulin-like Growth Factor Binding Protein 3 (IGF Binding Protein 3, IGFBP3, IGFBP-3, IBP3, IBP

IGFBP3 is a member of the insulin-like growth factor binding protein (IGFBP) family with an IGFBP domain and a thyroglobulin type-I domain. This protein forms a ternary complex with insulin-like growth factor acid-labile subunit (IGFALS) and either insulin-like growth factor (IGF) I or II. In this form, it circulates in the plasma, prolonging the half-life of IGFs and altering their interaction with cell surface receptors. Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot and ELISA.
