Vitellogenin-2 (VTG2) Chicken Recombinant Protein

Precursor of the major egg-yolk proteins that are sources of nutrients during early development of oviparous organisms. Phosvitin is believed to be of importance in sequestering calcium, iron and other cations for the developing emembryo.

Small volumes of VTG2 recombinant protein vial(s) may occasionally become entrapped in the seal of the product vial during shipment and storage. If necessary, briefly centrifuge the vial on a tabletop centrifuge to dislodge any liquid in the container`s cap. Certain products may require to ship with dry ice and additional dry ice fee may apply.

MBS1265583 is a recombinant protein targeting VTG2. Also known as Recombinant Chicken Vitellogenin-2 (VTG2), partial. Host: E Coli or Yeast or Baculovirus or Mammalian Cell.
