HGH 191AASOMATROPIN

4mg (12 IU)CAS 12629-01-5

Recombinant 191-amino-acid human growth hormone, identical to the pituitary 22 kDa isoform.

For laboratory research use only. Not for human or veterinary consumption, diagnostic or therapeutic use. Handle in accordance with institutional safety procedures.

Product Overview

Scientific profile

SOMATROPIN is recombinant human growth hormone (hGH): a 191-amino-acid, single-chain, non-glycosylated protein of approximately 22 kDa whose sequence is identical to the major isoform secreted by the anterior pituitary. The molecule folds into a four-helix bundle stabilised by two disulfide bonds.

Research Background

hGH binds sequentially to two growth-hormone-receptor (GHR) molecules, triggering receptor dimer rearrangement and activation of JAK2 and the STAT5 transcription factor. Downstream effects include hepatic and local induction of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and broad regulation of protein, lipid and carbohydrate metabolism. 4 mg corresponds to approximately 12 IU based on the WHO international standard (≈3 IU per mg).

Areas of Investigation

  • GHR / JAK2–STAT5 signal transduction
  • IGF-1 induction and the somatotropic axis
  • Receptor-binding stoichiometry and protein engineering
  • Protein stability, aggregation and formulation studies

Analytical Profile

Purity by reverse-phase / size-exclusion HPLC; identity confirmed by ESI-MS (deconvoluted intact mass). Supplied as a lyophilized protein.
