EGF (Asn977-Arg1029)_x000D_ Accession # P01132 |
N-term |
C-term |
|
Purity |
> 95% as determined by BisTris PAGE > 95% as determined by HPLC |
Endotoxin Level |
Less than 1EU per μg by the LAL method. |
Biological Activity |
Measured in a cell proliferation assay using Balb/3T3 mouse embryonic fibroblasts. The ED50 for this effect is typically 0.4 3 ng/mL. Test result was comparable to standard batch. |
Expression System |
HEK293 |
Theoretical Molecular Weight |
32.35 kDa |
Apparent Molecular Weight |
Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 35-40 kDa based on Bis-Tris PAGE result. |
Formulation |
Lyophilized from 0.22μm filtered solution in PBS (pH 7.4). |
Reconstitution |
Centrifuge the tube before opening. Reconstituting to a concentration more than 100 μg/ml is recommended. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water. |
Storage & Stability |
Upon receiving, the product remains stable up to 6 months at -20 °C or below. Upon reconstitution, the product should be stable for 3 months at -80 °C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. |
Target Background |
The epidermal growth factor (EGF) family of peptides encodes several proteins that can function as growth factors. The EGF-like peptides, with the exception of proteins of the EGF-CFC subfamily, bind and activate tyrosine kinase receptors that belong to the erbB family. |
Synonyms |
