| Recombinant human epidermal growth factor(EGF) is a 6.3kD globular protein containing 54 amino acids residues, including 3 intra-molecular disulfide bonds. EGF is a potent growth factor that stimulates the proliferation of various epidermal and epithelial cells. Additionally, EGF has been shown to inhibit gastric secretion, and to be involved in wound healing. | | | Catalog # | E3374-03B | | Source | Recombinant human Epidermal Growth Factor, aa971-1023, expressed in E. coli. | | Molecular Weight | 6.2kD | | Biological Activity | ED50 is < 0.1ng/ml.
