| DEFINITION |
Insulin-like growth factor II (180 aa, ~20 kDa) is encoded by the human IGF2 gene. This protein plays a role in cellular growth, development, and mitogenesis. |
| DesignNote |
Similar to insulin, the full length insulin-like growth factor II precursor protein is cleaved at positions 24 or 25 and at positions 91 and 180 to release a 67 or 66 amino acid growth factor and an 89 amino acid E peptide. The E peptide can be further processed to release prepeptin. (UniProt) |
