FGF17 Human

Data sheet

Formulation

FGF17 protein was lyophilized from a 0.2um filtered concentrated solution in PBS, pH 7.4.

Solubility

It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized FGF17 in sterile 18M?-cm H2O not less than 100ug/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.

Purity

Greater than 95.0% as determined by: (a) Analysis by RP-HPLC.(b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE.

Description

FGF17 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 195 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 22.6kDa.

Protein Background

Fibroblast Growth Factor 17 (FGF17) belongs to the fibroblast growth factor (FGF) family. FGF family members have broad mitogenic and cell survival activities, and are involved in various biological processes including embryonic development cell growth, m

Expression host

Escherichia Coli.

Synonyms

Fibroblast growth factor 17, FGF-17, FGF17, FGF-13, HH20.

Reagent Appearance

Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.

Stability

Lyophilized FGF17 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution FGF17 should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a
