Active Recombinant Human IGF1 Protein

• Cat.No.: IGF1-057H
• Product Overview: The mature recombinant human IGF-1 protein containing 70aa (G49-A118) without tag was expressed in E. coli.

Specification

• Description: The protein encoded by this gene is similar to insulin in function and structure and is a member of a family of proteins involved in mediating growth and development. The encoded protein is processed from a precursor, bound by a specific receptor, and secreted. Defects in this gene are a cause of insulin-like growth factor I deficiency. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms that may undergo similar processing to generate mature protein.
• Source: E. coli
• Species: Human
• Bio-activity: Measured in a serum-free cell proliferation assay using MCF-7 human breast cancer cells. The ED50 for this effect is 0.3-1.5 ng/mL.
• Molecular Mass: 7.6 kDa
• Product-Related Proteins: 49-118
• Endotoxin: < 0.1 EU/μg of the protein as determined by the LAL method
• Purity: > 95 % as determined by SDS-PAGE
• Storage: At -80 centigrade. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
• Storage Buffer: PBS
