| Hepatocyte Growth Factor Human Recombinant produced in Baculovirus is a heterodimer, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain consisting an a-chain of 463 amino acids and a-chain of 234 having a total molecular mass of 80kD. | | | Catalog # | H2005-06 | | Source | Baculovirus Infected High-5 cells. Amino Acid Sequence agrees with the sequence of native human HGF. | | Protein Content | Protein quantitation was carried out by two independent methods: 1. UV spectroscopy at 280 nm using the absorbency value of 1.83 as the extinction coefficient for a 0.1% (1mg/ml) solution. This value is calculated by the PC GENE computer analysis program of protein sequences (IntelliGenetics). 2. Analysis by RP-HPLC, using a standard solution of HGF as a Reference Standard. | | Biological Activity | The ED50 calculated by the dose-dependent proliferation of monkey 4MBr-5 indicator cells was found to be 20-40ug/ml. | | Storage and Stability | Lyophilized Hepatocyte Growth Factor although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -20°C. Upon reconstitution HGF should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -20°C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles. | | Source | Baculovirus Infected High-5 cells | | Purity | 98.0% as determined by RP-HPLC or SDS-PAGE. | | Concentration | As reported | | Form | Supplied as a lyophilized powder from PBS, pH 7.4 containing 0.05% Tween 20, from a concentrated (1mg/ml) solution. Reconstitute with sterile dH2O to 100ug/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions. | | | 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. |
