Product Details

Catalog Number: 315-25
Description:
Recombinant Murine Midkine

Midkine (MK) and its functionally-related protein pleiotrophin are heparin-binding neurotrophic factors that signal through the same receptor, known as anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK).  MK plays an important regulatory role in epithelial-mesenchymal interactions during fetal development and in postnatal lung development.  MK chemoattracts embryonic neurons, neutrophils and macrophages, and exerts angiogenic, growth and survival activities during tumorgenesis.  Recombinant Murine Midkine is a 13.3 kDa protein containing 120 amino acid residues including five intra-molecular disulfide bonds.
