SKU:: 585906
Molecular Weight:: 11.7
Purity:: ≥85% (SDS-PAGE)
Storage Conditions:: -20°C
Supplier:: United States Biological
Format:: Supplied as a lyophilized powder from 20mM Tris-HCl, 0.5M sodium chloride, pH 8.0, 6% trehalose. Reconstitute with sterile ddH2O to a concentration of 0.1-1mg/ml.
Extra Details:: Growth factor that mediates its effects via EGFR, ERBB2 and ERBB4. Required for normal cardiac valve formation and normal heart function. Promotes smooth muscle cell proliferation. May be involved in macrophage-mediated cellular proliferation. It is mitogenic for fibroblasts, but not endothelial cells. It is able to bind EGF receptor/EGFR with higher affinity than EGF itself and is a far more potent mitogen for smooth muscle cells than EGF. Also acts as a diphtheria toxin receptor. Source: Recombinant protein corresponding to aa63-148 from human Proheparin-binding EGF-like growth factor, fused to 6X His-Tag at C-terminal, expressed in Yeast.
