Recombinant Active Human FGF23 Protein, His-tagged(C-ter)

• Cat.No.: FGF23-83H
• Product Overview: Recombinant Active Human FGF23 Protein with His tag (C-ter) was expressed in E. coli.

Specification

• Description: This gene encodes a member of the fibroblast growth factor family of proteins, which possess broad mitogenic and cell survival activities and are involved in a variety of biological processes. The product of this gene regulates phosphate homeostasis and transport in the kidney. The full-length, functional protein may be deactivated via cleavage into N-terminal and C-terminal chains. Mutation of this cleavage site causes autosomal dominant hypophosphatemic rickets (ADHR). Mutations in this gene are also associated with hyperphosphatemic familial tumoral calcinosis (HFTC).

• Endotoxin: Endotoxin level is less than 0.1 EU/μg of the protein, as determined by the LAL test.
• Purity: > 98% (by SDS-PAGE)
• Applications: SDS-PAGE
• Notes: For laboratory research only, not for drug, diagnostic or other use.
• Storage: Lyophilized protein should be stored at -20°C. After reconstitution, aliquot and store at -20°C or -80°C for up to one month. Storage in frost free freezers is not recommended. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles. Suggest spin the vial prior to opening.
• Storage Buffer: PBS (pH 8.0)
• Reconstitution: It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized protein in sterile water to a concentration not less than 100 μg/mL and incubate the stock solution for at least 20 min at room temperature to make sure the protein is dissolved completely.

Q&As

What role does FGF23 play in chronic kidney disease?

FGF23 levels are elevated in chronic kidney disease, contributing to mineral imbalance.

How is FGF23 implicated in cardiovascular health?

High FGF23 levels are associated with increased cardiovascular risk.

How does FGF23 regulate phosphate and calcium homeostasis?

It decreases renal phosphate reabsorption and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D production.

Are there known genetic mutations that affect FGF23 production or activity?

Mutations in FGF23 or related proteins can lead to dysregulated phosphate metabolism.

What therapeutic strategies are being explored to modulate FGF23 levels?

Strategies include phosphate binders and FGF23 antibodies to manage elevated FGF23 levels.

In which tissues is FGF23 predominantly produced and secreted?

FGF23 is primarily produced in bone.

What is the primary function of FGF23 in the body?

FGF23 regulates phosphate and vitamin D metabolism.
