Description:
ACE-011 is a human fusion protein from the combination of Activin Receptor Type IIA and an antibody molecule. It is called a fusion protein because scientists have joined two different genes, each of which typically code for separate proteins. By fusing the genes, a new, unique protein is created with certain functions from both of the original proteins. This fusion protein, ACE-011, inhibits bone loss and promotes bone formation.
