Product Description

Rat multimeric vitronectin

Rat multimeric vitronectin is prepared from fresh rat plasma using urea as a denaturant. Vitronectin is a 75 kDa glycoprotein, consisting of 459 amino acid residues. About one-third of the protein's molecular mass is composed of carbohydrates. On occasion, the protein is cleaved after arginine 379, to produce two-chain vitronectin, where the two parts are linked by a disulfide bond. No high resolution structure has been determined experimentally yet, except for the N-terminal domain.
