Extra Details:
Source: E.coli. MW :17.15kD. Recombinant Mouse Fibroblast growth factor 2 is produced by our E.coli expression system and the target gene encoding Met1-Ser154 is expressed. FGF basic is one of 22 mitogenic proteins of the FGF family; which show 35-60% amino acid conservation. Unlike other FGFs; FGF acidic and basic lack signal peptides and are secreted by an alternate pathway. The 17 kDa mouse sequence has 98% aa identity with rat; and 95% identity with human; bovine; and sheep FGF basic. Binding of FGF to heparin or cell surface HSPG is necessary for binding; dimerization and activation of tyrosine kinase FGF receptors. FGF basic binds other proteins; polysaccharides and lipids with lower affinity. Expression of FGF basic is nearly ubiquitous but disruption of the mouse FGF basic gene gives a relatively mild phenotype; suggesting compensation by other FGF family members. FGF basic modulates such normal processes as angiogenesis; wound healing and tissue repair; embryonic development and differentiation; neuronal function and neural degeneration. Transgenic overexpression of FGF basic results in excessive proliferation and angiogenesis is reminiscent of a variety of pathological conditions.
