Description

Description: Human Granulocyte Macrophage Colony Stimulating Factor (hGM-CSF), a hematopoietic growth factor, is mainly involved in granulopoiesis and monocytopoiesis. It is produced by T-cells and macrophages in response to antigens, and by endothelial cells and fibroblasts following induction of various cytokines. A monomeric protein of 127 amino acidswith six glycosylation sites and two intra disulfide bonds, glycosylated and non-glycosylated hGM-CSFs show similar biological activities. Other than its connection to the growth and development of granulocytes and macrophages, it is also indispensable for the proliferation of erythroid and megakaryocytic cells. Recombinant Human Granulocyte Macrophage Colony Stimulating Factor (rhGM-CSF) produced in P. pastoris a glycosylated polypeptide. A fully biologically active molecule, rhGM-CSF has a molecular mass of 26-32kDa analyzed by SDS-PAGE and is obtained by refolding and chromatographic techniques.
