    • Affinity Tag

      His Tag (N-term)

      Buffer

      Lyophilized from a 0.2 µm filtered solution of PBS containing 0.01% sarkosyl, pH 8.0.

    • Purity

      >98% as determined by SDS-PAGE analysis.

      Molecular weight

      The protein has a calculated MW of 18.1 kDa.
      The protein migrates as 17 kDa under reducing condition (SDS-PAGE analysis).

    • Activity

      Measure by its ability to induce 3T3 cells proliferation. The ED₅₀ for this effect is <1 ng/mL. The specific activity of recombinant human FGF-2 is approximately >5 x 10⁵ IU/mg.

      Endotoxin level

      <0.1 EU per 1 μg of the protein by the LAL method.

      Lyophilized

  • Background
    • Background

      Basic fibroblast Growth Factors (FGF-2, bFGF, FGF-β), a 18 kDa pleiotropic cytokine, plays multiple roles in different cells and tissues. FGF-2 can stimulate smooth muscle cell growth, wound healing, and tissue repair. In addition, FGF-2 has been shown to regulate the generation of neurons and astrocytes from progenitor cells. FGF-2 are also involved in a variety of biological processes, including embryonic development, morphogenesis, tissue repair, tumor growth, and invasion. As a multifunctional cytokine, FGF-2 is first isolated from the pituitary. Later, it was identified from various cell types including cardiac myocytes, cardiac fibroblasts, endothelial cells, and smooth muscle cells.
