Description
ACVR2A and ACVR2B are two activin type II receptors. ACVR2A has been shown to interact with INHBA, SYNJ2BP and ACVR1B. The bovine ACVR2A gene encodes a protein of 513 amino acids which is highly homologous (approximately 98% identity) to the rat, mouse, and human ACVR2A proteins. Inactivation of ACVR2A is a common event in prostate cancer cells suggesting it may play an important role in the development of prostate cancer. The ACVR2A gene is a putative tumor suppressor gene that is frequently mutated in microsatellite-unstable colon cancers (MSI-H colon cancers). Frameshift mutation of ACVR2A may contribute to MSI-H colon tumorigenesis via disruption of alternate TGF-beta effector pathways.

Molecular weight
The secreted recombinant mouse ACVR2A comprises 126 amino acids and has a calculated molecular mass of 14.8 kDa. As a result of glycosylation, the recombinant protein migrates as an approximately 35 kDa band in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions.

Purity
> 97 % as determined by SDS-PAGE
-
Activity
Measured by its ability to neutralize Activin-mediated inhibition on MPC11 cell proliferation.
The ED50 for this effect is typically 0.6-3 μg/mL in the presence of 10 ng/ml Recombinant Human Activin A. -
