VEGF (121 a.a.) Mouse

Data sheet

Formulation

The protein was lyophilized from a concentrated (1mg/ml) solution with no additives.

Solubility

It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized VEGF-121 in sterile 18M-cm H2O not less than 100ug/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.

Purity

Greater than 97.0% as determined by:(a) Analysis by RP-HPLC.(b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE.

Inactivation

GM-CSF quantitation was carried out by two independent methods:1. UV spectroscopy at 280 nm using the absorbency value of 0.963 as the extinction coefficient for a 0.1% (1mg/ml) solution. This value is calculated by the PC GEN computer analysis program of

Description

Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor-121 Mouse Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a homodimer, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 121 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 28.4 kDa.Recombinant Mouse VEGF-121 is a truncated version of Murine

Protein Background

Vascular endothelial growth factor is an important signaling protein involved in both vasculogenesis and angiogenesis. As its name implies, VEGF activity has been mostly studied on cells of the vascular endothelium, although it does have effects on a numb

Expression host

Escherichia Coli.

Synonyms

Vascular endothelial growth factor A, VEGF-A, Vascular permeability factor, VPF, VEGF, MGC70609.

Reagent Appearance

Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.

Stability

Lyophilized VEGF-121 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution VEGF-121 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
