Fibroblast Growth Factor 2, Basic, Recombinant, Human (FGF2b)

Fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF2) is a member of the FGF family that binds heparin and plays , important roles in morphogenic, neurotrophic and angiogenic processes. FGF2 possess diverse biological functions, such as neuron differentiation, embryonic development and differentiation, modulation of angiogenesis, and wound healing. Source: Recombinant human FGF2 expressed in E. coli (143-288 aa). , AA Sequence: MPALPEDGGS GAFPPGHFKD PKRLYCKNGG FFLRIHPDGR VDGVREKSDP , HIKLQLQAEE RGVVSIKGVC ANRYLAMKED GRLLASKCVT DECFFFERLE SNNYNTYRSR KYTSWYVALK RTGQYKLGSK TGPGQKAILF LPMSAKS , , Endotoxin Level: <1.0 EU/1ug of protein (LAL). Biological Activity: Measured in a cell proliferation assay using NIH-3T3 mouse embryonic fibroblast. The ED50 for this effect is 0.1-1.5 ng/ml. Storage and Stability: For long-term storage, aliquot and store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for at least 6 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.
