Resistin, murine recombinant | 4560

Murine Resistin is a new member to the family of adipocyte secreted proteins. The biological functions of Resistin as well as its molecular target are larGely unknown. Whether it promotes or antagonizes insulin action is still unclear. Recombinant Murine Resistin is a 20.2 kDa dimeric protein consisting of two 94 amino acid polypeptide chains.
