Active Recombinant Human Transforming Growth Factor, Beta 2

• Cat.No.: TGFB2-577H
• Product Overview: PDGF is a mitogenic peptide growth hormone carried in the alpha-granules of platelets. The synthesis of PDGF can be induced by Interleukin-1, Interleukin-6, TNF-alpha, TGF-beta and EGF. Recombinant Human PDGF-AB is a heterodimeric, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 234 amino acids consisting of 13.3kDa alpha-chain and 12.2 beta-chain having a total molecular mass of 25.5kDa.

Specification

• Cat. No.: TGFB2-577H
• Description: Transforming growth factor-beta 2 (TGF-μ2) is a secreted protein known as a cytokine that performs many cellular functions and has a vital role during embryonic development. It is an extracellular glycosylated protein.
• Species: Human
• Source: E.coli
• Form: Lyopohilized from 10 mM Acetic Acid.
• Purity: Purity Greater than 95% as determined by: Reducing and non-reducing SDS-PAGE.
• Bio-activity: PDGF-AB is fully biologically active when compared to standard. The ED50, calculated by the dose-dependant proliferation of mouse 3T3 indicator cells is < 1.72 ng/ml.
• Physical Appearance: Sterile Filtered white lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
• Solubility: Centrifuge vial before opening. When reconstituting the product, gently pipet and wash down the sides of the vial to ensure full recovery of the protein into solution.It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized product with sterile water at a concentration of 0.1 mgμs/ml, which can be further diluted into other aqueous solutions.
• Purity Greater than 95% as determined by: Reducing and non-reducing SDS-PAGE.
• Protein Content determined by: UV spectroscopy at 280 nm. Quantitation on SDS-PAGE against a known standard.
• Endotoxin Level: Endotoxin level as measured by LAL is <0.01ng/ug or <0.1EU/ug.
