LFTY1 Polyclonal Antibody, 20ul Immunoassays DHX8 is a member ofThis gene encodes a secreted ligand of the TGF beta (transforming growth factor beta) superfamily of proteins. Ligands of this family bind various TGF beta receptors leading to recruitment and activation of SMAD family transcription factors that regulate gene expression. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate the mature protein, which plays a role in left right asymmetry determination of organ systems during development.
