Inserting the gene encoding the Human LEFTY2 protein (77-366aa) into a plasmid vector results in the creation of recombinant plasmid, which is introduced into e.coli cells. e.coli cells that can survive in the presence of a specific antibiotic are selected, indicating successful uptake of the recombinant plasmid. The e.coli cells containing the recombinant plasmid are cultured under conditions promoting the expression of the gene of interest. A N-terminal 10xHis tag and C-terminal Myc tag is linked to the protein. After expression, affinity purification is used to isolate and purify the recombinant Human LEFTY2 protein from the cell lysate. Denaturing SDS-PAGE is then applied to resolve the resulting recombinant Human LEFTY2 protein, revealing a purity level exceeding 85%.

Target Background
This 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. The protein may also play a role in endometrial bleeding. Mutations in this gene have been associated with left-right axis malformations, particularly in the heart and lungs. Some types of infertility have been associated with dysregulated expression of this gene in the endometrium. This gene is closely linked to both a related family member and a related pseudogene. This gene encodes multiple isoforms that may undergo similar proteolytic processing.
