Recombinant Human VEGFA, Biotinylated

• Cat.No.: VEGFA-271H
• Product Overview: Human VEGF121 Protein, Biotinylated (Biotinylated VEGF121) Ala 207 - Arg 327, was labeled with biotin based on rhVEGF121 Protein, which was produced in human 293 cells (HEK293).?

Specification

• Description: This gene is a member of the PDGF/VEGF growth factor family and encodes a protein that is often found as a disulfide linked homodimer. This protein is a glycosylated mitogen that specifically acts on endothelial cells and has various effects, including mediating increased vascular permeability, inducing angiogenesis, vasculogenesis and endothelial cell growth, promoting cell migration, and inhibiting apoptosis. Elevated levels of this protein is linked to POEMS syndrome, also known as Crow-Fukase syndrome. Mutations in this gene have been associated with proliferative and nonproliferative diabetic retinopathy. Alternatively spliced transcript variants, encoding either freely secreted or cell-associated isoforms, have been characterized. There is also evidence for the use of non-AUG (CUG) translation initiation sites upstream of, and in-frame with the first AUG, leading to additional isoforms.
• Source: HEK293
• Species: Human
• Form: Lyophilized from 0.22 μm filtered solution in PBS, pH7.4. Normally Trehalose are added as protectants before lyophilization.
• Molecular Mass: Biotinylated VEGF121, contains no "tag", has a calculated MW of 14 kDa (monomer). The predicted N-terminus is Ala 207. As a result of glycosylation, DTT-reduced Protein migrates as 19 kDa (monomer) and non-reduced protein migrates as 40 kDa (homodimer).
• Endotoxin: Less than 1.0 EU per μg of the Biotinylated VEGF121 by the LAL method.
• Purity: >95% as determined by reduced SDS-PAGE.
• Storage: Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. No activity loss was observed after storage at: In lyophilized state for 1 year (4°C); After reconstitution under sterile conditions for 3 months (-70°C).
