Description
FGF-17 is a member of the FGF superfamily of heparin-binding mitogenic molecules characterized by the presence of a core, 120 amino acid (aa) beta-trefoil structure. The mRNA of FGF-17 was found in midgestation of embryo and multiple adult tissues, and is preferentially expressed in specific sites, such as embryonic brain, developing skeleton and arteries.

Physical Appearance |
Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder. |
|
Purity |
> 98 % by SDS-PAGE and HPLC analyses. |
|
Biological 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 10 ng/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of > 1.0 × 105 IU/mg in the presence of 10 μg/ml of heparin. |
|
Endotoxin |
< 0.1 EU per 1μg of the protein by the LAL method. |
|
Formulation |
Lyophilized from a 0.2 µm filtered concentrated solution in 20 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0, 700 mM NaCl, with 0.02 % Tween-20. |
|
Reconstitution |
We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Reconstitute in sterile PBS to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/ml. Stock solutions should be apportioned into working aliquots and stored at ≤ -20 °C. Further dilutions should be made in appropriate buffered solutions. |
Shipping and Storage
The products are shipped with ice pack and can be stored at -20℃ to -80℃ for 1 year.
Recommend to aliquot the protein into smaller quantities when first used and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Cautions
1. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
2. For your safety and health, please wear lab coats and disposable gloves for operation.
3. For research use only.
