FGF1 Intracellular-Binding Protein/FIBP Protein (recombinant human)

Protein Construction: Recombinant Human Acidic Fibroblast Growth Factor Intracellular-Binding Protein/FIBP is produced by our E.coli expression system and the target gene encoding Met1-Asp357 is expressed. Sequence: Met 1-Asp357. Endotoxin: < 1.0 EU per µg as determined by the LAL method. Apparent Molecular Mass: 41 kDa. Protein function: Acidic Fibroblast Growth Factor Intracellular-Binding Protein (FIBP) is highly expressed in the heart, skeletal muscle, and pancreas. Acidic Fibroblast Growth Factor is a member of the fibroblast growth factor (FGF) family. FGF family members possess broad mitogenic and cell survival activities, and are involved in a variety of biological processes, including embryonic development, cell growth, morphogenesis, tissue repair, tumor growth and invasion. FIBP is an intracellular protein that binds selectively to acidic fibroblast growth factor (aFGF). It is postulated that FIBP may be involved in the mitogenic action of aFGF. Protein function: May be involved in mitogenic function of FGF1. May mediate with IER2 FGF-signaling in the establishment of laterality in the embryo. [The UniProt Consortium]
