FGF-2 Fibroblast Growth Factor-Basic Mouse Recombinant Protein

• Description:

  Fibroblast Growth Factor-basic Mouse Recombinant (FGF-2) produced in E. coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 146 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 16.3kDa. The FGF-2 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

• Synonyms:

  HBGF-2; Prostatropin; FGF-2; FGB-b

• Gene Name:

  FGF2

• UniProt:

  P15655

• Reactivity:

  Mouse

• Source:

  Escherichia coli

• Sequence:

  [object Object]

• Purification:

  Greater than 95.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE.

• Bioactivity:

  The activity as calculated by the dose-dependant proliferation of BALB/3T3 cells was found to be less than 1ng/ml corresponding to a specific activity of 1,000,000 units/mg.

• Form:

  Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.

• Reconstitution:

  It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Fibroblast Growth Factor b in sterile 18M-cm H2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.

• Function:

  Plays an important role in the regulation of cell survival, cell division, angiogenesis, cell differentiation and cell migration. Functions as potent mitogen in vitro. Can induce angiogenesis.

• Shipping Conditions:

  Available

• Storage Conditions:

  Lyophilized Fibroblast Growth Factor-2 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution FGF-basic should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C.For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA) .Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.

• Other Gene Names:

  Fibroblast growth factor 2
