Extra Details:
Fibroblast Growth Factors (FGFs) are a 22 member family of proteins known to be involved in angiogenesis, wound healing and embryonic development. As a family, they bind to heparin and signal through four receptor tyrosine kinases called, FGFR1, 2, 3 and 4. FGF-acidic, or FGF-1, is a particularly potent inducer of DNA synthesis and has chemotactic activities. Recombinant human FGF acidic is a non-glycosylated protein, containing 141 amino acids, with a molecular weight of 16 kDa.

SDS-PAGE of Human Fibroblast Growth Factor acidic Recombinant Protein. Lane 1: Molecular weight marker. Lane 2: 1 ug Human FGF acidic in non-reducing conditions (-). Lane 3: Molecular weight marker. Lane 4: 1 ug Human FGF acidic in reducing conditions (+). Human FGF acidic has a predicted MW of 15.8 kDa.
Bioactivity of Human Fibroblast Growth Factor acidic Recombinant Protein. Serial dilutions of Human FGF Acidic, starting at 10 ng/mL, were added to 3T3 cells in the presence of 10 ug/mL heparin. Cell proliferation was measured after 44 hours and the linear portion of the curve was us used to calculate the ED50. The ED50 of Human FGF Acidic is 0.8-0.12 ng/mL. This value is comparable with the typical expected range of < 1 ng/mL.
