This protein has been isolated from bovine colostrum, human brain and porcine uterus. It is a truncated variant of human IGF-1 with an N-terminal deletion of the tripeptide Gly-Pro-Glu, which probably results from post-translational cleavage of IGF-1 (Ballard et al, 1996).
The protein binds less well to IGF-binding proteins and is generally approximately 10-fold more potent than IGF-1 at stimulating hypertrophy and proliferation of cultured cells.
