Cyr61/CCN1 Protein(C-Fc) (recombinant human)

Protein Construction: Recombinant Human Cysteine-rich angiogenic inducer 61 is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Thr25-Asp381 is expressed with a Fc tag at the C-terminus. Sequence: Thr 25-Asp381. Fusion tag: C-Fc Endotoxin: < 1.0 EU per µg as determined by the LAL method. Apparent Molecular Mass: 71 kDa. Protein function: Protein CYR61, also known as CCN family member 1, Cysteine-rich angiogenic inducer 61,Insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 10 , GIG1, CYR61, CCN1 and IGFBP10, belongs to the CCN family, CYR61 is a secreted protein and contains one CTCK (C-terminal cystine knot-like) domain,one IGFBP N-terminal domain,one TSP type-1 domain and one VWFC domain. CYR61 promotes cell proliferation, chemotaxis, angiogenesis and cell adhesion. CYR61 plays important roles in inflammation and tissue repair. CYR61 is associated with diseases related to chronic inflammation, including rheumatoid arthritis, atherosclerosis, diabetes-related nephropathy and retinopathy, and many different forms of cancers. Protein function: Promotes cell proliferation, chemotaxis, angiogenesis and cell adhesion. Appears to play a role in wound healing by up- regulating, in skin fibroblasts, the expression of a number of genes involved in angiogenesis, inflammation and matrix remodeling including VEGA-A, VEGA-C, MMP1, MMP3, TIMP1, uPA, PAI-1 and integrins alpha-3 and alpha-5. CYR61-mediated gene regulation is dependent on heparin-binding. Down-regulates the expression of alpha-1 and alpha-2 subunits of collagen type-1. Promotes cell adhesion and adhesive signaling through integrin alpha-6/beta-1, cell migration through integrin alpha-v/beta-5 and cell proliferation through integrin alpha-v/beta-3.
