| Description: Recombinant Human Fibroblast Growth Factor 7/Keratinocyte growth factor is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Cys32-Thr194 is expressed with a 6His tag at the C-terminus. |
| Background: Fibroblast growth factor 7 (FGF7) is a secreted protein which is mainly located in epithelial cells and belongs to the heparin-binding growth factors 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. FGF7 is a potent epithelial cell-specific growth factor, whose mitogenic activity is predominantly exhibited in keratinocytes but not in fibroblasts and endothelial cells. It is possible major paracrine effector of normal epithelial cell proliferation. |
| Species/Host: HEK293 |
| Molecular Weight: 20 KDa |
| Molecular Characterization: Not available |
| Purity: Greater than 95% as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE. |
| Formulation & Reconstitution: Lyophilized from nanodisc solubilization buffer (20 mM Tris-HCl, 150 mM NaCl, pH 8.0). Normally 5% – 8% trehalose is added as protectants before lyophilization. |
| Storage & Shipping: Store at -20°C to -80°C for 12 months in lyophilized form. After reconstitution, if not intended for use within a month, aliquot and store at -80°C (Avoid repeated freezing and thawing). Lyophilized proteins are shipped at ambient temperature. |
