FGF-8 Polyclonal Antibody, 50ul Metabolic enzymes Placental ribonuclease inhibitor (PRI) is

Placental ribonuclease inhibitor (PRI) is a member of a family of proteinaceous cytoplasmic RNase inhibitors that occur in many tissues and bind to both intracellular and extracellular RNases (summarized by Lee et al

It is proposed that this gene plays a role in mitochondrial protein metabolism and could be involved in mitochondrial pathologies

It is involved in local signaling in the developing and adult nervous system

Mutations in this gene are associated with pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy

FGF-8 Polyclonal Antibody, 50ul Metabolic enzymes Placental ribonuclease inhibitor (PRI) isFibroblast growth factor 8 encoded by FGF8 is a member of the fibroblast growth factor (FGF) family. FGF family members possess broad mitogenic and cell survival activities, and are involved in a variety of biological processes, including embryonic development, cell growth, morphogenesis, tissue repair, tumor growth and invasion. This protein is known to be a factor that supports androgen and anchorage independent growth of mammary tumor cells.
