| Recombinant PDGF-A comprises a 110 amino acid fragment (87-196) corresponding to the mature PDGF-A short chain protein and is expressed in E. coli with an amino-terminal hexahistidine tag. | | | Catalog # | P4258-01D | | The term ‘PDGF’ refers to a family of disulfide bond- linked dimeric isoforms that act as autocrine and paracrine growth factors and are produced by a variety of cell types other than platelets. They act as potent mitogens for almost all mesenchymally-derived cells. Aberrant expression is involved in certain cancers, fibroproliferative disorders and atherosclerosis. | | Applications | Suitable for use in ELISA. Other applications not tested. | | | | Recommended Dilution: | | Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. | | Storage and Stability | May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. For long-term storage and to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, add sterile glycerol (40-50%), aliquot and store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months at -20°C. 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. | | Source | Human, Recombinant, E. coli | | Purity | Purified. 95% by SDS-PAGE. | | Concentration | As reported | | Form | Supplied as a liquid. | | | 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. |
