Related Product Information for
anti-IGFALS antibody
IGFALS is a serum protein that binds insulin-like growth factors, increasing their half-life and their vascular localization. Production of the protein, which contains twenty leucine-rich repeats, is stimulated by growth hormone. Defects in this protein are a cause of acid-labile subunit deficiency, which maifests itself in a delayed and slow puberty.

NCBI Summary for IGFALS
The protein encoded by this gene is a serum protein that binds insulin-like growth factors, increasing their half-life and their vascular localization. Production of the encoded protein, which contains twenty leucine-rich repeats, is stimulated by growth hormone. Defects in this gene are a cause of acid-labile subunit deficiency, which maifests itself in a delayed and slow puberty. Three transcript variants encoding two different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2009]
