Active Recombinant Human EGF protein, His-tagged

• Cat.No.: EGF-2813H
• Product Overview: Active Recombinant Human EGF protein(P01133)(971~1023 aa), fused with N-terminal His tag, was expressed in E.coli.

Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: E.coli
• Tag: His
• Protein Length: 971-1023 aa
• Form: Lyophilized from sterile 20mM Tris, 150mM NaCl, pH8.0, containing 1mM EDTA, 1mM DTT, 0.01% SKL, 5% Trehalose and Proclin300.
• Bio-activity: Epidermal growth factor (EGF) is a growth factor that stimulates cell growth, proliferation, and differentiation by binding to its receptor EGFR. To test the effect of EGF on cell proliferation of 3T3 fibroblasts, 3T3 cells were seeded into triplicate wells of 96-well plates at a density of 2, 000cells/well and allowed to attach overnight, then the medium was replaced with serum-free standard DMEM prior to the addition of various concentrations of EGF. After incubated for 72h, cells were observed by inverted microscope and cell proliferation was measured by Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8). Briefly, 10µL of CCK-8 solution was added to each well of the plate, then measure the absorbance at 450nm using a microplate reader after incubating the plate for 1-4 hours at 37°C.
• Molecular Mass: 9.9kDa
