Physical form description

Sterile filtered and lyophilized in 10 mM Tris, pH 8.0 + 0.15 M Ammonium Sulfate.
Reconstitution Instructions

Reconstitute in H₂O to a concentration of 0.2-0.5 mg/ml. This solution can then be diluted into other aqueous buffers or stored at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for future use. Repeated freeze/thaw cycles will result in some loss of activity.
Background Information

FGF-9 is a heparin binding growth factor that belongs to the FGF family. FGF-9 stimulates the proliferation and activation of glial cells and other cells that express FGF receptors. Recombinant murine FGF-9 is a 23.3 kDa protein containing 205 amino acid residues.
