Growth hormone variant Antibodies

AND GH2 ELISA kits, Growth hormone variant Proteins

Many biological assays use antibodies to detect Growth hormone variant, such as Western Blot (WB), ELISA, Flow Cytometry, Immunocytochemistry (IHC). These antibodies can be polyclonal or monoclonal, and react with Growth hormone variant in Human, Mouse, Rat, and many other animal samples. Boster Bio use mainly mouse and rabbit to develop Growth hormone variant antibodies...

We validate the specificity of these antibodies to Growth hormone variant by testing them on tissues known to express GH2 positively and negatively. Browse below to find the GH2 antibody that suites your experiment. We have 3 of these antibodies and many publications and validation images.

If you cannot find antibodies that fit your needs, contact us for making custom antibodies. We have a full suite of custom antibody services covering from research to diagnostic and therapeutic applications.

GH2 Overview

Facts about Growth hormone variant.

GH2 3D structure. Source: alphafold

Growth hormone variant (GH2)

Plays an important role in growth control. Its major role in stimulating body growth is to stimulate the liver and other tissues to secrete IGF-1.

It stimulates both the differentiation and proliferation of myoblasts. It also stimulates amino acid uptake and protein synthesis in muscle and other tissues.
