Product Description:

Protein Description:

FGF-4 encoded by this gene 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. FGF-4 is mitogenic for fibroblasts and endothelial cells in vitro and has autocrine transforming potential. It is a potent angiogenesis promoter in vivo and has been investigated as a therapy for coronary artery disease.

Activity:

Measure by its ability to induce 3T3 cells proliferation. The ED50 for this effect is <2.5 ng/mL.

Endotoxin level: <0.1 EU per 1 ug of the protein by the LAL method.

Calculated Molecular Weight: 20.70 kDa

Formulation: The protein was lyophilized from a solution containing 0.1% sarkosyl in 1X PBS, pH 8.0.

Reconstitution:

It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized protein in sterile H2O to a concentration not less than 100 ug/mL and incubate the stock solution for at least 20 min to ensure sufficient re-dissolved.

Shipping: Blue Ice

Stability and Storage:

Lyophilized protein should be stored at -20 degrees Celsius for 1 year. Upon reconstitution, store at 2 degrees Celsius to 8 degrees Celsius for up to 1 week. Further dilute in a buffer containing a carrier protein or stabilizer (e.g. 0.1% BSA, 10%FBS, 5%HSA or 5% trehalose solution), protein aliquots should be stored at -20 degrees Celsius or -80 degrees Celsius for 3-6 months.
