FGF17 Protein, Human, Recombinant

• Background:

  FGF-13, also known as FGF17, belongs to the fibroblast growth factor (FGF) family. Members of this family show broad mitogenic and cell survival activities, and play a role in a variety of biological processes including embryonic development cell growth, morphogenesis, tissue repair, tumor growth and invasion. FGF-13 is preferentially expressed in the embryonic brain. It interacts with FGFR3 and FGFR4. FGF-13 plays an important role in the regulation of embryonic development and as signaling molecule in the induction and patterning of the embryonic brain. It is also required for normal brain development.

• Purity:

  > 95 % as determined by SDS-PAGE.

• Activity:

  Measured in a cell proliferation assay using BALB/c 3T3 mouse fibroblasts.The EDfor this effect is typically 0.6-3 μg/mL.

• Form:

  Lyophilized

• Buffer:

  Lyophilized from sterile 50mM Tris, 1M NaCl, PH 8.5 Please contact us for any concerns or special requirements. Normally 5 % - 8 % trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween 80 are added as protectants before lyophilization. Please refer to the specific buffer information in the hard copy of CoA.

• Function:

  Cytokine Proteins, Biological Target proteins, Growth Factor proteins

• Molecular Weight:

  The recombinant human FGF17 consists of 195 amino acids and predicts a molecular mass of 22.6 KDa. It migrates as an approximately 21 and 23 KDa band in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions.

• Storage Conditions:

  In general, recombinant proteins are provided as lyophilized powder which are shipped at ambient temperature. Bulk packages of recombinant proteins are provided as frozen liquid. They are shipped out with blue ice unless customers require otherwise. Stable for 1 year at -20°C or below from date of shipment. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and opening the cap. For long-term storage, aliquot and store at -20°C or below. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
