Recombinant Mouse Vegfa Protein, His-tagged

• Cat.No.: Vegfa-564M
• Product Overview: Recombinant Mouse Vegfa Protein (Ala27-Arg146) with N-His tag was expressed in E. coli.

Specification

• Description: This gene is a member of the PDGF/VEGF growth factor family. It encodes a heparin-binding protein, which exists as a disulfide-linked homodimer. This growth factor induces proliferation and migration of vascular endothelial cells, and is essential for both physiological and pathological angiogenesis. Disruption of this gene in mice resulted in abnormal embryonic blood vessel formation. This gene is upregulated in many known tumors and its expression is correlated with tumor stage and progression. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. There is also evidence for alternative translation initiation from upstream non-AUG (CUG) codons resulting in additional isoforms. A recent study showed that a C-terminally extended isoform is produced by use of an alternative in-frame translation termination codon via a stop codon readthrough mechanism, and that this isoform is antiangiogenic. Expression of some isoforms derived from the AUG start codon is regulated by a small upstream open reading frame, which is located within an internal ribosome entry site.
• Source: E. coli
• Species: Mouse
• Tag: His
• Form: Freeze-dried powder
• Molecular Mass: Predicted Molecular Mass: 17.8 kDa
  Accurate Molecular Mass: 18 kDa
• Protein length: Ala27-Arg146
• Purity: > 97%
• Applications: Positive Control; Immunogen; SDS-PAGE; WB.
• Stability: The thermal stability is described by the loss rate. The loss rate was determined by accelerated thermal degradation test, that is, incubate the protein at 37 centigrade for 48h, and no obvious degradation and precipitation were observed. The loss rate is less than 5% within the expiration date under appropriate storage condition.
• Storage: Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles. Store at 2-8 centigrade for one month. Aliquot and store at -80 centigrade for 12 months.
• Storage Buffer: PBS, pH7.4, containing 0.01% SKL, 1 mM DTT, 5% Trehalose and Proclin300.
• Reconstitution: Reconstitute in sterile water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL. Do not vortex.
