| Recombinant Human FGF-basic (FGF-2) is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 155aa and having a molecular weight of 17.3kD. The sequence of the first five N-terminal amino acids was determined to be Ala-Glu-Gly-Glu-Ile. | | | Catalog # | F4210-10G | | Source | Recombinant Human FGF-basic, expressed in E. coli. | | Molecular Weight | 17.3kD | | Activity | The ED50 as determined by the dose-dependent proliferation of BAF3 cells expressing FGF receptors (measured by 3H-thymidine uptake) is <0.5ng/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of 2 x 10e6 Units/mg. | | Storage and Stability | Lyophilized powder may be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Stable for at least 6 months at -20°C. Reconstitute with sterile deionized water to a concentration 100ug/ml. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer. | | Molecular Weight | 17.3kD | | Source | E. coli | | Purity | 95% (RP-HPLC, SDS-PAGE) | | Form | Supplied as a lyophilized powder from PBS, pH 7.4. Reconstitute with sterile ddH2O to 100ug/ml. | | | Important Note | This product as supplied is intended for research use only, not for use in human, therapeutic or diagnostic applications without the expressed written authorization of United States Biological. |
