Active Recombinant Human EGF, His-tagged

• Cat.No.: EGF-470H
• Product Overview: Recombinant Human EGF (Accession # CAA28240) Met1-Arg1023, fused with a C-terminal 6-His tag, was produced in Mouse myeloma cell line, NS0-derived.

Specification

• Source: Mammalian cells
• Species: Human
• Tag: His
• Predicted N Terminal: Ser21
• Form: Lyophilized from a 0.2 µm filtered solution in PBS with BSA as a carrier protein.
• Bio-activity: Measured in a cell proliferation assay using Balb/3T3 mouse embryonic fibroblast cells. Rubin, J.S. et al. (1991) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 88:415.The ED50 for this effect is typically 1-5 ng/mL.
• Molecular Mass: Recombinant Human EGF, His-tagged has a calculated MW of 112 kDa. In SDS-PAGE migrates as 138-145 kDa, reducing conditions.
• Purity: >90%, by SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions and visualized by silver stain.
• Storage: Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. No activity loss was observed after storage at: In lyophilized state for 1 year (4ºC); After reconstitution under sterile conditions for 3 months (-70ºC).
• Reconstitution: Reconstitute at 100 µg/mL in sterile PBS containing at least 0.1% human or bovine serum albumin.
