Recombinant Human VEGF165 (rHu VEGF165)

• Synonyms:

  Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Isoform 165

• Source:

  Escherichia coli.

• Purity:

  > 95 % by SDS-PAGE and HPLC analyses.

• Bioactivity:

  Fully biologically active when compared to standard. The ED50 as determined by a cell proliferation assay using human umbilical vein endothelial cells(HUVEC) is between 1.0-8.0 ng/ml.

• Molecular Weight:

  Approximately 38.6 kDa, a disulfide-linked homodimeric protein consisting of two 166 amino acid polypeptide chains with Met at N-terminus.

• Storage Conditions:

  This lyophilized preparation is stable at 2-8 °C, but should be kept at -20 °C for long term storage, preferably desiccated. Upon reconstitution, the preparation is stable for up to one week at 2-8 °C. For maximal stability, apportion the reconstituted preparation into working aliquots and store at -20 °C to -70 °C. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.

• Formulation:

  Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered concentrated solution in PBS, pH 7.4.

• Host or Source:

  Human

• CAS Number:

  9000-83-3
