Product information "rec. Human Fibroblast Growth Factor-basic - (rHuFGF-b)"
Basic fibroblast growth factor 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. This protein functions as a modifier of endothelial cell migration and proliferation, as well as an angiogenic factor. It acts as a mitogen for a variety of mesoderm- and neuroectoderm-derived cells in vitro, thus is thought to be involved in organogenesis. Three alternatively spliced variants encoding different isoforms have been described. The heparin-binding growth factors are angiogenic agents in vivo and are potent mitogens for a variety of cell types in vitro. There are differences in the tissue distribution and concentration of these 2 growth factors.
Rec. human Fibroblast Growth Factor-2 (FGF-2 / FGF-basic) produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain of 154 amino acids and a molecular mass of 17.2kDa.
Biological activity: The ED50, calculated by the dose-dependant proliferation of BAF3 cells expressing FGF receptors (measured by 3H-thymidine uptake) is <0.5ng/mL, corresponding to a specific activity of 2,000,000 Units/mg.
