GDF-9 is a member of the TGF-B superfamily of growth and differentiation factors，and is highly homologous to GDF-3. Unlike most TGF-family members，GDF-9 and GDF-3 are not disulfide-linked dimers. GDF-3 is expressed in adult bone marrow，spleen，thymus，and adipose tissue. GDF-9 is expressed in oocytes and is required for normal ovarian folliculogenesis. Human GDF-9 is a 31.0 kDa non-disulfide-linked homodimer containing two 135 amino acid polypeptide chains.
应用类型
Western blotting （0.5-4 ug/ml）. Recombinant human GDF-9 （Cat.# 4872-10） can be used as a positive control. However， the optimal concentrations should be determined individually.
