Only our most reliable and effective kits qualify as Picokine, guaranteeing top-tier results for your assays.\u003cp\u003eBiglycan (BGN) is a small leucine-rich repeat proteoglycan (SLRP) which is found in a variety of extracellular matrix tissues, including bone, cartilage and tendon. It is an important structural component of articular cartilage and participates in the assembly of the chondrocyte extracellular matrix through formation of protein interactions with type VI collagen and large proteoglycan aggregates. In humans, Biglycan is encoded by the BGN gene. It is mapped to Xq28. Biglycan is believed to play a role in the mineralisation of bone, and its core protein binds to the growth factors BMP-4 and influences its bioactivity. It has been reported that the presence of biglycan is necessary for BMP-4 to exert its effects on osteoblasts. There is also evidence that biglycan can bind to TGF-beta 1. In addition, Biglycan plays an important role in cell signaling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eProduct information\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSupplier\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBoster Bio\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eABMIUM evidence status\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eABMIUM Verified™ collaborator-tested data\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCatalogue reference\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEK1357\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eProduct category\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePicoKine® ELISA Kits\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eReactive species\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHuman\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eTested applications\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eELISA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eGene name\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBGN\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eProtein name\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBiglycan\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSample type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ecell culture supernatants, serum and plasma (heparin, EDTA).\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eAssay range\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e156 pg\/ml - 10,000 pg\/ml\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSensitivity\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u0026lt;10 pg\/ml\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecificity\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNatural and recombinant human Biglycan\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eImmunogen\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eExpression system for standard: NS0; Immunogen sequence: D38-K368\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eStorage\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStore at 4℃ for 6 months, at -20℃ for 12 months.
