General description
Growth and differentiation factor-associated serum protein-1 (GASP-1) is expressed primarily in the ovary, testis, and brain. The GASP-1 gene encodes a 571 amino acid protein that contains a 29 amino acid secretion signal sequence, and multiple identifiable structural features, including a WAP domain, a follistatin/Kazal domain, an immunoglobulin domain, two tandem Kunitz domains, and a netrin domain. Recombinant human GASP-1 is a 542 amino acid protein that migrates at an apparent molecular weight of approximately 55-66kDa by SDS-PAGE analysis under non-reducing conditions.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Growth and differentiation factor-associated serum protein-1 (GASP-1) is a secreted inhibitory TGF-β binding protein that contains multiple protease inhibitor structural domains. It can act as a potent soluble inhibitor of myostatin and GDF-11, but not Activin-A.
Physical form
Lyophilized from 10 mM Sodium Phosphate, pH 7.8.
Reconstitution
Centrifuge the vial prior to opening. Reconstitute in water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL. Do not vortex. This solution can be stored at 2-8°C for up to 1 week. For extended storage, it is recommended to further dilute in a buffer containing a carrier protein (example 0.1% BSA) and store in working aliquots at -20°C to -80°C.

Myostatin, a member of the TGFbeta superfamily, is a potent and specific negative regulator of skeletal muscle mass. In serum, myostatin circulates as part of a latent complex containing myostatin propeptide and/or follistatin-related gene (FLRG). Here, we report the identification
