Recombinant Human Surfactant Protein B is supplied as a recombinant protein for in vitro research use.
Background
SFTPB is an amphipathic surfactant protein critical for lung function and homeostasis after birth. Pulmonary surfactant is a surface-active lipoprotein complex composed of 90% lipids and 10% proteins which consist of plasma proteins and apolipoproteins SPA, SPB, SPC and SPD. Pulmonary surfactant-associated proteins support alveolar stability by lowering the surface tension at the air-liquid interface in the peripheral air spaces. The SPB improves the rate of spreading and increases the stability of surfactant monolayers in vitro. SPB increases the collapse pressure of palmitic acid to approximately 70 millinewtons per meter.
Product format
Provided as a recombinant protein suitable for in vitro workflows such as binding studies, screening, and assay development. Refer to the specifications table for expression format and molecular properties.
