Product Description: PF-4/CXCL4 is a member of the CXC chemokine family that is released from the alpha-granules of activated platelets. PF-4/CXCL4 binds with high affinity to heparin, with antiheparin, antiangiogenic and immunomodulatory activities. PF-4/CXCL4 plays a role in hematopoiesis and immune cell modulation[1][2]. PF-4/CXCL4 Protein, Human is produced in E. coli , and consists of 70 amino acids (E32-S101).
Formula: 5196(Gene_ID)P02776 (E32-S101)(Accession)
