Bacteria-Derived FGF-1 Recombinant Protein Lyophilized from Innovative Research has been recombinantly produced in E.coli. The protein formulation is lyophilized from a 0.2 ?m filtered solution of PBS; pH 7.4. with a purity of > 95 % as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE..

More Details:

• Species: Human
• Target: FGF-1
• Purity: > 95 % as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE..< 1.0 EU per ug as determined by the LAL method.
• Source: E.coli
• Storage Conditions: Lyophilized proteins are stable for up to 12 months when stored at -20 to -80°C. Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 4-8? for 2-7 days. Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at < -20? for 3 months.

FGF acidic; also known as ECGF; FGF-1and HBGF-1; is a non-glycosylated heparin binding growth factor that is expressed in the brain; kidney; retina; smooth muscle cells; bone matrix; osteoblasts; astrocytes and endothelial cells. It is a mitogenic peptide that is produced by multiple cell types and stimulates the proliferation of cells of mesodermal; ectodermal; and endodermal origin. Its association with heparan sulfate is a prerequisite for activation of FGF receptors. Internalized FGF acidic migrates to the nucleus where it is phosphorylated by nuclear PKC delta; exported to the cytosol; dephosphorylated; and degraded. Intracellular FGF acidic inhibits p53 activity and proapoptotic signaling.
