Specification

• Species: Mouse
• Source: E.coli
• Description: Enables growth factor activity. Involved in stem cell development. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including animal organ development; positive regulation of macromolecule metabolic process; and positive regulation of signal transduction. Located in extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; extraembryonic component; genitourinary system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Parkinsonism; corneal neovascularization; diabetic neuropathy; gastric ulcer; and impotence. Orthologous to human FGF2 (fibroblast growth factor 2).
• Molecular Mass: 16 kDa
• Endotoxin: <0.005 EU/μg protein (below level of detection)
• Applications: Differentiation of human pluripotent Stem cells towards extra-embryonic endoderm, mesenchymal, neural lineages, and chondrocytes
• Storage: Prepare single use aliquots, add carrier protein if desired, store frozen at -20 or -80 centigrade
• Storage Buffer: Frozen in PBS
