| Introduction | |
| Basic fibroblast growth factor is a member of the fibroblast growth factor (FGF) family. FGF family members possess broad mitogenic and cell survival activities, and are involved in a variety of biological processes, including embryonic development, cell growth, morphogenesis, tissue repair, tumor growth and invasion. This protein functions as a modifier of endothelial cell migration and proliferation, as well as an angiogenic factor. It acts as a mitogen for a variety of mesoderm- and neuroectoderm-derived cells in vitro, thus is thought to be involved in organogenesis. Three alternatively spliced variants encoding different isoforms have been described. The heparin-binding growth factors are angiogenic agents in vivo and are potent mitogens for a variety of cell types in vitro. There are differences in the tissue distribution and concentration of these 2 growth factors. | |

| Physical Appearance | |
| Sterile Filtered liquid formulation. | |
| Formulation | |
| The sterile protein solution (0.5mg/ml) contains 20mM Tris pH=7.9, 100mM KCl, 1mM DTT and 20% glycerol. | |
| Stability | |
| Store at 4°C if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks. Store, frozen at -20°C for longer periods of time. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles. | |
| Purity | |
| Greater than 98.0% as determined by(a) Analysis by RP-HPLC. (b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE. | |
| Amino acid sequence | |
| The sequence of the first five N-terminal amino acids was determined and was found to be Ala-Ala-Gly-Ser-Ile. | |
| Biological Activity | |
| The ED50, calculated by the dose-dependant proliferation of BAF3 cells expressing FGF receptors (measured by 3H-thymidine uptake) is <0.5 ng/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of 2MU/mg. | |
| Precautions | |
| FGF 2 Human, Plant is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. | |
