Formulation |
PLGF-3 protein was lyophilized from a 0.2um filtered solution in HCl. |
Solubility |
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized PLGF3 in sterile 4mM HCl 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 |
PLGF3 Human Recombinant produced in Spodoptera frugiperda is a glycosylated homodimer containing 2 chains of 203 amino acids (Leu19-Arg221) and having a molecular mass of 58kDa.The PLGF-3 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. |
Protein Background |
PLGF is a growth factor active in angiogenesis, and endothelial cell growth, stimulating their proliferation and migration. It binds to receptor vegfr-1/flt1. |
Expression host |
Spodoptera frugiperda. |
Synonyms |
Placental Growth Factor, Placental Growth Factor Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor-Related Protein, PGFL, PLGF, Placental Growth Factor-Like, Placenta Growth Factor, SHGC-10760, D12S1900, PlGF-2, PGF. |
Reagent Appearance |
Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder. |
Stability |
Lyophilized PLGF3 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution PLGF-3 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 carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
Biological Activity |
The ED50, as measured by its binding ability to rHuVEGF R1 in a functional ELISA, is less than 3ng/ml. |
