Product Specifications

Description

A single non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 53 amino acids corresponding to EGF Source: E. coli

Uniprot ID: P01133

Amino Acid Sequence: NSDSECPLSH DGYCLHDGVC MYIEALDKYA CNCVVGYIGE RCQYRDLKWW ELR

This lyophilized preparation is stable for 12 months from date of receipt at -20 to -70 degrees C, preferably desiccated. Upon reconstitution, the preparation can be stored for 1 month at 2-8 degrees C under sterile conditions, and for 3 months at -20 degrees C to -70 degrees C. Use a manual defrost freezer and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Stock solutions should be aliquoted and stored at < -20 degrees C. Further dilutions should be made in appropriate buffered solutions

Purity

>95%, by SDS-PAGE and HPLC

Endotoxin Level

Less than 1 EU/ug of EGF as determined by LAL method.

Predicted Molecular Mass

6.2 kDa.
Disclaimer note: The observed molecular weight of the protein may vary from the listed predicted molecular weight due to post translational modifications, post translation cleavages, relative charges, and other experimental factors.

Activity

Fully biologically active when compared to standard. The ED50 as determined by a cell proliferation assay using murine Balb/c 3T3 cells is less than 1 ng/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of > 1.0 x 10^6 IU/mg.

Background: EGF

EGF R (ErbB1) is a receptor tyrosine kinase that is widely expressed on epithelial cells and is required for epithelial cell development and proliferation. EGF R binds the EGF family ligands: EGF, Amphiregulin, TGF-alpha, Betacellulin, Epiregulin, HB-EGF, and Epigen. Ligand binding induces EGF R homodimerization as well as heterodimerization with ErbB2, ErbB3, or ErbB4. EGF R signaling regulates multiple biological functions including cell proliferation, differentiation, motility, and apoptosis. Alterations in the structure, expression, and signaling of EGF R are involved in the development and metastasis of a wide variety of cancers.
