Growth/Differentiation Factor 3

Preferred Label : Growth/Differentiation Factor 3;

NCIt synonyms : Growth Differentiation Factor 3; GDF-3;

NCIt definition : Growth/differentiation factor 3 (364 aa, 41 kDa) is encoded by the human GDF3 gene. This protein is involved in the modulation of both cell growth and differentiation.;

NCIt note : The active growth factor is released from the precursor following proteolytic cleavage at arginine at amino acid position 250 which is the final amino acid in a polybasic proteolytic processing site. (EntrezGene and UniProt);
