| Human Basic Fibroblast Growth Factor is a mitogen that stimulates cell growth for such cells as fibroblasts, endothelial cells, myoblasts, glial cells and smooth muscle cells. Basic FGF is composed of 146aa residues (pro 1 to ser 146), and is 55% homologous with acidic FGF, including two conserved cysteine residues. | | | Catalog # | F4210-24B | | Source | yeast | | Biological Activity | The mitogenic activity of human basic FGF is identical to natural bovine basic FGF, as measured by stimulation of 3H-thymidine incorporation into human foreskin fibroblast cells. | | Storage and Stability | Lyophilized powder may be stored at -20°C. Reconstitute to with sterile dH2O, aliquot and store at -20°C. Reconstituted product is stable for 6 months at -20°C.
