Name : Mouse FGF21 Protein

Product Source :
Recombinant Mouse FGF21 Protein is expressed from HEK293 with His tag at the N-Terminus. It contains His29-Ser210.[Accession | Q9NSA1-1]

Molecular Weight :
The protein has a predicted MW of 21 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 25-30 kDa based on Tris-Bis PAGE result.

Endotoxin Level :
Less than 1EU per μg by the LAL method.

Purity :
> 95% as determined by Tris-Bis PAGE> 95% as determined by HPLC

Formulation :
Lyophilized from 0.22μm filtered solution in PBS (pH 7.4). Normally 8% trehalose is added as protectant before lyophilization.

Reconstitution :
Centrifuge the tube before opening. Reconstituting to a concentration more than 100 μg/ml is recommended. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water.

Storage and Stability :
-20 to -80°C for 12 months as supplied from date of receipt.-80°C for 3-6 months after reconstitution.2-8°C for 2-7 days after reconstitution.Recommend to aliquot the protein into smaller quantities for optimal storage. Please minimize freeze-thaw cycles.

Product Concentration :
Tris-Bis PAGE Mouse FGF21 on Tris-Bis PAGE under reduced condition. The purity is greater than 95%. SEC-HPLC The purity of Mouse FGF21 is greater than 95% as determined by SEC-HPLC. SPR Data Mouse FGF21, His Tag immobilized on CM5 Chip can bind Human Beta Klotho, His Tag with an affinity constant of 41.50 nM as determined in SPR assay (Biacore T200).

Background :
Fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) is a peptide hormone that is synthesized by several organs and regulates energy homeostasis. Excitement surrounding this relatively recently identified hormone is based on the documented metabolic beneficial effects of FGF21, which include weight loss and improved glycemia.

Synonyms :
UNQ3115; PRO10196; FGF-21; FGF21
