Description
Basic fibroblast Growth Factors (FGF-2, bFGF, FGF-β), a 18 kDa pleiotropic cytokine, plays multiple roles in different cells and tissues. FGF-2 can stimulate smooth muscle cell growth, wound healing, and tissue repair. In addition, FGF-2 has been shown to regulate the generation of neurons and astrocytes from progenitor cells. FGF-2 are also involved in a variety of biological processes, including embryonic development, morphogenesis, tissue repair, tumor growth, and invasion. As a multifunctional cytokine, FGF-2 is first isolated from the pituitary. Later, it was identified from various cell types including cardiac myocytes, cardiac fibroblasts, endothelial cells, and smooth muscle cells.
Storage & Handling
Lyophilized protein should be stored at -20°C for 1 year. Upon reconstitution, store at 2°C to 8°C for up to 1 week. Further dilute in a buffer containing a carrier protein or stabilizer (e.g. 0.1% BSA, 10%FBS, 5%HSA or 5% trehalose solution), protein aliquots should be stored at -20°C or -80°C for 3-6 months. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.

Form
Lyophilized
Formulation
The protein was lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution containing 1X PBS, pH 8.0. If you have any concerns or special requirements, please confirm with us.
Purity
>98% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
Predicted MW
30.8 kDa
Molecular weight
The protein has a calculated MW of 18.1 kDa. The protein migrates as 15-18 kDa under reducing condition (SDS-PAGE analysis).
Activity
Measure by its ability to induce 3T3 cells proliferation. The ED₅₀ for this effect is <1 ng/mL. The specific activity of recombinant human FGF-2 is approximately >5 x 10⁵ IU/mg.
Endotoxin
<0.1 EU per 1 μg of the protein by the LAL method.
Amino Acid Sequence
A DNA sequence encoding Human FGF-2 Protein(#P09038) (Ala144-Ser288) was expressed.
Reconstitution
Centrifuge at 3000 rpm for 5 mins before opening. It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized protein in sterile H₂O to a concentration not less than 100 μg/mL and incubate the stock solution at room temperature for at least 20 mins to ensure sufficient re-dissolved. Do Not Vortex! Vigorous shaking may impair the biological activity of the protein.
