ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a family of substantially pure, receptor like TGF-.beta.1 binding glycoproteins. These molecules are characterized by molecular masses of 160 kd, 70-80 kd, and 30-40 kd as determined by SDS-PAGE, and the ability to bind the TGF-.beta.1 molecule. This family of molecules is useful in identifying and/or quantifying TGF-.beta.1 in a sample, as well as inhibiting its effect on cells.
