Name : Canine EGF Protein
Product Source :
Recombinant Canine EGF Protein is expressed from E.coli with His tag at the N-terminus. It contains Asn973-Arg1024.[Accession | Q9BEA0]
Molecular Weight :
The protein has a predicted MW of 13.61 kDa. The protein migrates to 16-22 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 Canine EGF on Tris-Bis PAGE under reduced condition. The purity is greater than 95%. SEC-HPLC The purity of Canine EGF is greater than 95% as determined by SEC-HPLC. ELISA Data Immobilized Canine EGF, His Tag at 1μg/ml (100μl/well) on the plate. Dose response curve for Human EGFR, hFc Tag with the EC50 of 4.7ng/ml determined by ELISA (QC Test). Cell Based Assay Measured in a cell proliferation assay using Balb 3T3 mouse embryonic fibroblasts. The EC50 for this effect is typically 0.5 – 3 ng/mL.
Background :
The epidermal growth factor (EGF) family of peptides encodes several proteins that can function as growth factors. The EGF-like peptides, with the exception of proteins of the EGF-CFC subfamily, bind and activate tyrosine kinase receptors that belong to the erbB family.
Synonyms :
HOMG4; URG
