The only producer of quality-controlled redox variants of HMGB1

High Mobility Group Box 1 (HMGB1), also known as HMG-1 or amphoterin, is a highly conserved nuclear protein encoded by the HMGB1 gene. As a member of the high mobility group family, HMGB1 contains a characteristic HMG-box domain, which enables its interaction with DNA and other nuclear components.

Featured news

A recent study has revealed that HMGB1 dimerization is a key player in immune signaling. When two HMGB1 molecules join through a Cys106–Cys106 disulfide bond, their #inflammatory potential intensifies.

Two recent studies shed light on how HMGB1 contributes to Kaposi’s sarcoma (KS) and small cell lung cancer (SCLC), revealing new potential therapeutic strategies for cancer.

HMGB1 (High Mobility Group Box 1) isoforms can be used to explore the mechanisms of several disease models.
All proteins are LPS free, so they are suitable for in vitro and in vivo researches.
