Product Overview
Tag | N/A |
Host Species | Cynomolgus |

Background | FGF acidic, also known as ECGF, FGF-1and HBGF-1, is a non-glycosylated heparin binding growth factor that is expressed in the brain, kidney, retina, smooth muscle cells, bone matrix, osteoblasts, astrocytes and endothelial cells. It is a mitogenic peptide that is produced by multiple cell types and stimulates the proliferation of cells of mesodermal, ectodermal, and endodermal origin. Its association with heparan sulfate is a prerequisite for activation of FGF receptors. Internalized FGF acidic migrates to the nucleus where it is phosphorylated by nuclear PKC delta, exported to the cytosol, dephosphorylated, and degraded. Intracellular FGF acidic inhibits p53 activity and proapoptotic signaling. |
Description | A DNA sequence encoding the cyno FGF1 (Phe16-Asp155) was expressed and purified with an initial Met. |
Source | E.coli |
Predicted N Terminal | Met |
AA Sequence | Phe16-Asp155 |
Molecular Weight | The recombinant cyno FGF1 consists of 141 amino acids and has a calculated molecular mass of 16 kDa. It migrates as an 16 KDa band in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions. |
Purity | >95% as determined by SDS-PAGE |
Endotoxin | Please contact us for more information. |
Bioactivity | Measured in a cell proliferation assay using BALB/c 3T3 mouse fibroblasts.The ED50 for this effect is typically 0.1-0.4 ng/mL. |
Formulation | Recombinant Cynomolgus FGF1 Protein was lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4, 20% glycerol. |
Stability | Recombinant Cynomolgus FGF1 protein is stable up to 1 year at -70°C |
Usage | For Research Use Only |
Storage | Store the protein under sterile conditions at -20°C to -80°C. It is recommended that the protein be aliquoted for optimal storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. |
