Fibronectin type III domain-containing protein 5

Irisin is a recently described exercise and PGC1-alpha-induced myokine secreted by skeletal muscle in mice and humans. Irisin has been shown to induce browning of white adipose tissue, but this role has been questioned and a new function in the control of mass and strength of cortical bone has been reported. The membrane fibronectin type III domain containing protein 5 (FNDC5) can be cleaved by an unknown protease to release the Irisin protein (aa 32-143 for human) and potentially also the FNDC5 (extracellular domain, aa 32-153 for human). - Protein. FNDC5 (extracellular domain) (human, aa 32-152 / mouse, aa 29-149) is fused at the C-terminus to the Fc portion of human IgG1. FNDC5 (extracellular domain) has 100% identity between mouse, rat and human. Source: HEK 293 cells. Endotoxin content: <0.01EU/microg purified protein (LAL test; Lonza). Lyophilized. Contains PBS.
