|
| Description: |
Acidic FGF is a mitogen for cells of
mesodermal and neuroectodermal origin, including
fibroblasts, endothelial cells, astrocytes, neuroblasts,
osteoblasts, and smooth muscle cells. This protein is
composed of 140 amino acid residues, and has a 55%
homology with basic FGF, including two conserved
cysteine residues.
Human Acidic FGF is produced by genetically
engineered yeast, and purified by heparin-Sepharose
affinity chromatography.
|
| Molecular Weight: |
15.5 KDa |
| Biological Activity: |
Human acidic FGF is mitogenic for a
variety of normal cells in culture including
fibroblasts, glial cells, vascular endothelial cells.
|
| Formulation: |
10 mM Tris-HCl, 1.5 M NaCl, pH 7.0
Concentration: 0.50 mg protein/ml. |
| Purity: |
Over 95% pure by HPLC analysis and SDS
gel electrophoresis. |
| Storage Conditions: |
Store at -80°C. It is also possible to
keep this protein at low pH (2-5) for a few days. |
| Stability: |
Unstable without a carrier protein like
gelatin or bovine serum albumin. It is recommended to
add some of these proteins, prior to aliquoting, for
longer storage. |
| Temperature: |
-80°C |
