Target Information
Chicken vitellogenin-2 (VTG2) is a precursor of egg yolk proteins in chickens, synthesized in the liver under the stimulation of estrogen. It is a crucial component for the development of oocytes, as it provides essential nutrients and energy for the growing embryo. VTG2 is a major contributor to the egg's nutritional value, containing lipid, vitamin, and mineral-binding proteins. It is involved in the formation of the egg yolk and is vital for the reproductive success of hens. The protein plays a significant role in avian reproduction and serves as a biomarker for exposure to estrogenic or xenoestrogenic compounds.
