Description_x000D_ General description_x000D_ Rat gAcrp30 (amp-1) is a 16.6 kDa protein that corresponds to the C-terminal globular domain of adiponectin (amp-1). gAcrp30/Adipolean is expressed and secreted exclusively by adipose tissue. This protein possesses unique pharmacological properties for regulation of body weight and lipid metabolism. It is a key component in controlling energy homeostasis. Recently, gAcrp30/Adipolean has been shown to inhibit the proliferation of myelomonocytic progenitors. The Recombinant rat gAcrp30/Adipolean is a 16.6 kDa protein consisting of 145 amino acid residues._x000D_ Physical form_x000D_ Sterile filtered and Lyophilized without additives._x000D_ Reconstitution_x000D_ Centrifuge the vial prior to opening.
