| Human Transforming Growth Factor-b1 (TGF-b1) is a member of a superfamily of homologous, disulfide-linked, homo-dimeric proteins that regulate the proliferation and differentiation of normal and transformed cells. TGF-β1 is synthesized in cells as a 390-amino acid precursor. The protein undergoes a number of intracellular processing steps including proteolytic digestion of the precursor yielding two products that assemble into dimers. The 65–75 kDa N-terminal cleavage product corresponds to the latency-associated peptide (LAP), and the 25-kDa C-terminal portion of the precursor constitutes the mature TGF- β1. |
