Recombinant Mouse Hbegf protein

• Cat.No.: Hbegf-564M
• Product Overview: Recombinant Mouse Hbegf protein was expressed in Escherichia coli.

Specification

• Species: Mouse
• Source: E.coli
• Tag: Non
• Protein Length: 86
• Description: Heparin-binding epidermal growth factor (HB-EGF)-like growth factor (EGF) is found in cerebral neurons. Its expression is increased after hypoxic or ischemic injury, which also stimulates neurogenesis. HB-EGF has been implicated as a participant in a variety of normal physiological processes such as blastocyst implantation and wound healing, and in pathological processes such as tumor growth, SMC hyperplasia and atherosclerosis. The protein is an 87 amino acid mitogenic and chemotactic glycoprotein containing an EGF-like domain with six conserved cysteine residues. Mouse HB-EGF shares about 73 % a.a. sequence identity with human HB-EGF.
• Form: Lyophilized from a 0.2μm filtered concentrated solution in 10 mM PB, 500 mM NaCl, pH7.4.
• Bio-activity: Fully biologically active when compared to standard. The ED50 as determined by a cell proliferation assay using murine Balb/c 3T3 cells is less than 1 ng/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of > 1.0 × 10⁶ IU/mg.
• Molecular Mass: Approximately 9.8 kDa, a single non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 86 amino acids.
• AA Sequence: DLEGTDLNLFKVAFSSKPQGLATPSKERNGKKKKKGKGLGKKRDPCLRKYKDYCIHGECRYLQEFRTPSCKCLPGYHGHRCHGLTL
• Endotoxin: Less than 1 EU/μg of rMuHB-EGF as determined by LAL method.
• Purity: >97% by SDS-PAGE and HPLC analysis.
• Storage: Use a manual defrost freezer and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. 12 months from date of receipt, -20 to -70 centigrade as supplied. 1 month, 2 to 8 centigrade under sterile conditions after reconstitution. 3 months, -20 to -70 centigrade under sterile conditions after reconstitution.
• Reconstitution: We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Reconstitute in sterile distilled water or aqueous buffer containing 0.1 % BSA to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL. Stock solutions should be apportioned into working aliquots and stored at ≤-20 centigrade. Further dilutions should be made in appropriate buffered solutions.
