Gastric Intrinsic Factor (GIF) Human Recombinant Protein

Promotes absorption of the essential vitamin cobalamin (Cbl) in the ileum. After interaction with CUBN, the GIF-cobalamin complex is internalized via receptor-mediated endocytosis.

Small volumes of GIF 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.

MBS964584 is a recombinant protein targeting GIF. Also known as Recombinant Human Gastric intrinsic factor.
