FGF5 Human

Data sheet

Formulation

FGF-5 protein was lyophilized from a 0.2um filtered solution in 10mM sodium phosphate and 100mM sodium chloride pH 7.5.

Solubility

It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized FGF5 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 SDS-PAGE.

Description

FGF5 Human Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain having containing 252 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 27.7kDa.The FGF-5 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Protein Background

Fibroblast Growth Factor-5 (FGF5) belongs to the FGF family of mitogenic peptides. In vitro, rhFGF5 is a mitogen for Balb/3T3 fibroblasts and bovine heart endothelial cells. FGF5 is also a major muscle-derived survival factor for cultured spinal motoneuro

Expression host

Escherichia Coli.

Synonyms

Fibroblast Growth Factor 5, Heparin-Binding Growth Factor 5, Smag-82, HBGF-5, TCMGLY, FGF-5, FGF5.

Reagent Appearance

Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.

Stability

Lyophilized FGF5 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution FGF-5 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
