Description
Product Name: | Human HB-EGF Recombinant Protein |
Product Code: | RPPB0269 |
Size: | 50µg |
Species: | Human |
Target: | HB-EGF |
Synonyms: | HBEGF, DTR, DTS, HEGFL, HB-EGF, Diphtheria toxin receptor, DT-R, DTSF. |
Source: | Escherichia Coli |
Physical Appearance: | Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder. |
Formulation: | The protein was lyophilized from a concentrated (1mg/ml) solution containing 10mM sodium phosphate pH-7.5. |
Solubility: | It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Human HB-EGF in sterile 18M-cm H2O not less than 100 �g/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions. |
Stability: | Lyophilized Human HB-EGF Recombinant although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution HB-EGF should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C.For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
Purity: | Greater than 95.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE. |
Amino Acid Sequence: | MDLQEADLDL LRVTLSSKPQ ALATPNKEEH GKRKKKGKGL GKKRDPCLRK YKDFCIHGECKYVKELRAPS CICHPGYHGE RCHGLSL |
Biological Activity: | The ED50 was determined by the ability to induce proliferation of 3T3 cells and is 0.13-0.2ng/ml. This corresponds to an expected specific activity of 7.7 x 106units/mg. |
HB-EGF is an EGF related growth factor which signals via the EGF receptor, and stimulates the proliferation of SMC (smooth muscle cells), fibroblasts, epithelial cells and keratinocytes. HB-EGF is expressed in various cell types and tissues, including vascular endothelial cells and SMC, macrophages, skeletal muscle, keratinocytes and particular tumor cells. HB-EGF�s ability to explicitly bind�HPR sulfate proteoglycans is dissimilar from other EGF-like molecules, and might be related to the enhanced mitogenic activity, relative to EGF, that HB-EGF exerts on smooth muscle cells.
HB-EGF Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 87 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 9.9kDa.The HB-EGF is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
UniProt Protein Function: | HBEGF: Growth factor that mediates its effects via EGFR, ERBB2 and ERBB4. Required for normal cardiac valve formation and normal heart function. Promotes smooth muscle cell proliferation. May be involved in macrophage-mediated cellular proliferation. It is mitogenic for fibroblasts, but not endothelial cells. It is able to bind EGF receptor/EGFR with higher affinity than EGF itself and is a far more potent mitogen for smooth muscle cells than EGF. Also acts as a diphtheria toxin receptor. |
