Recombinant Rat Hepatocyte growth factor/HGF Protein
High quality, high purity and low endotoxin recombinant Recombinant Rat Hepatocyte growth factor/HGF Protein (RPCB1844), tested reactivity in HEK293 cells and has been validated in SDS-PAGE.100% guaranteed.
Endotoxin:
< 0.1 EU/μg of the protein by LAL method.
Purity:
≥ 90 % as determined by SDS-PAGE.
Formulation:
Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4.
Bio-Activity:
Measured in a cell proliferation assay using Mv.1.lu cells. The ED 50 for this effect is 1.6-6.2 ng/mL, corresponding to a specific activity of 1.6×10 5 ~6.3×10 5 units/mg.
Reconstitution:
Centrifuge the vial before opening. Reconstitute to a concentration of 0.1-0.5 mg/mL in sterile distilled water. Avoid vortex or vigorously pipetting the protein. For long term storage, it is recommended to add a carrier protein or stablizer (e.g. 0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose), and aliquot the reconstituted protein solution to minimize free-thaw cycles.
Storage:
Store at -20℃.Store the lyophilized protein at -20℃ to -80 ℃ up to 1 year from the date of receipt. After reconstitution, the protein solution is stable at -20℃ for 3 months, at 2-8℃ for up to 1 week.
Hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor (HGF/SF) is a paracrine cellular growth, motility and morphogenicfactor. It belongs to the peptidase S1 family and Plasminogen subfamily, contains 4 kringle domains, 1 PANdomain and 1 peptidase S1 domain. HGF regulates cell growth, cell motility, and morphogenesis by activatinga tyrosine kinase signaling cascade after binding to the proto-oncogenic c-Met receptor. HGF is secreted bymesenchymal cells and acts as a multi-functional cytokine on cells of mainly epithelial origin. Its ability tostimulate mitogenesis, cell motility, and matrix invasion gives it a central role in angiogenesis, tumorogenesis,and tissue regeneration.
Recombinant Rat Hepatocyte growth factor/HGF Protein was determined by SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions with Coomassie Blue.
Recombinant Rat HGF stimulates cell proliferation of the Mv.1.lu cells. The ED50 for this effect is 1.6-6.2 ng/mL, corresponding to a specific activity of 1.6×105~6.3×105 units/mg.
