Heparin-binding EGF-like growth factor (HB-EGF) is a 12-16 kDa member of the epidermal growth factor (EGF)family. It possesses an EGF-like domain, and a heparin-binding motif. Mature HB-EGF is a soluble peptide thatarises from proteolytic processing of the transmembrane form. Human HB -EGF shows 76% and 73% aasequence identity with rat and mouse HB-EGF, respectively. It is required for normal cardiac valve formationand normal heart function, promotes smooth muscle cell proliferation. It may be involved in macrophage-mediated cellular proliferation; it is mitogenic for fibroblasts, but not endothelial cells. HB-EGF classified as agroup 2 ErbB ligand based on its ability to activate both the EGF/ErbB1 and ErbB4 receptors. Activityassociated with ErbB4 binding appears to be limited to non -mitogenic actions, while EGFR binding inducesboth mitogenic and non-mitogenic activity.
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. |
Reconstitution: | Centrifuge the tube 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. |
