a glycoprotein that stimulates FSH secretion, cell differentiation, and embryonic development; a homodimer of inhibin beta A (also named activin beta A); A refers to presence of betaA subunit not alpha subunit; activin A belongs to the transforming growth factor-beta superfamily

Also Known As:

A-activin; EYDF; erythroid differentiation factor; homo-activin A
