| Catalog Number | PGF-007 |
| Size | 2µg;10µg;1mg |
| Description | PDGF-BB is a member of the platelet-derived growth factor family. All four members of this family are mitogenic factors for mesenchymal-derived cells, characterized by the presence of eight cysteine residues. The gene product can exist as a homodimer (PDGF-BB) or as a heterodimer with the platelet-derived growth factor alpha peptide (PDGF-AB), in which the heterodimer is linked by disulfide bonds. Mutations in this gene are associated with meningiomas. On chromosomes 22 and 7, reciprocal translocations involving this gene and the COL1A1 gene locus are associated with a specific type of skin tumor called dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans, which is caused by dysregulation of growth factor expression. Two splicing variants of this gene have been identified to date. |
| Application | This product can be used for research on supporting murine vascular tissue engineering with mouse PDGF-BB. |
| Molecular Weight | 24.7 kDa |
| Species | Mouse |
| Source | E.coli |
| Appearance | Sterile-filtered white lyophilized powder |
| Purity | ≥ 95% by SDS-PAGE, RP-HPLC |
| Activity | Biological activity was determined by the dose-dependent stimulation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) proliferation at concentrations below 1.6 ng/mL. |
| Redissolution | It is recommended to reconstitute lyophilized platelet-derived growth factor-BB in sterile 100 mM acetic acid and 0.1% BSA solution to a concentration of at least 100 µg/mL, after which it may be further diluted into other aqueous solutions. |
| Formulation | This protein was lyophilized from a 10 mM sodium citrate solution (pH 3.0). |
