Hgf
Product Overview
Recombinant mouse HGF (Q08048-1) (Met1-Leu728) was expressed and purified.
Description
Hepatocyte growth factor, also known as HGF, contains 4 kringle domains, 1 PAN domain, and 1 peptidase S1 domain. It belongs to the peptidase S1 family, plasminogen subfamily. The hepatocyte growth factor is secreted by mesenchymal cells as a single inactive polypeptide and is cleaved by serine proteases into a 69-kDa alpha-chain and 34-kDa beta-chain. A disulfide bond between the alpha and beta chains produces the active, heterodimeric molecule. The hepatocyte growth factor regulates cell growth, cell motility, and morphogenesis by activating a tyrosine kinase signaling cascade after binding to the proto-oncogenic c-Met receptor, and acts as a multi-functional cytokine on cells of mainly epithelial origin. Its ability to stimulate mitogenesis, cell motility and matrix invasion give it a central role in angiogenesis, tumorogenesis, and tissue regeneration. HGF is a potent mitogen for mature parenchymal hepatocyte cells, seems to be an hepatotrophic factor, and acts as a growth factor for a broad spectrum of tissues and cell types. HGF has no detectable protease activity. Defects in hepatocyte growth factor are the cause of deafness autosomal recessive type 39. A form of profound prelingual sensorineural hearing loss. Sensorineural deafness results from damage to the neural receptors of the inner ear, the nerve pathways to the brain, or the area of the brain that receives sound information.

Form
Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4, 5 % trehalose, 5% mannitol and 0.01% Tween80.
Molecular Mass
The recombinant mouse HGF comprises 696 amino acids and has a predicted molecular mass of 79.3 kDa. The apparent molecular mass of the protein is approximately 93 kDa in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions due to glycosylation.
Protein length
Met1-Leu728
Endotoxin
< 1.0 EU/μg of the protein as determined by the LAL method
Purity
> 95 % as determined by SDS-PAGE
Storage
Samples are stable for up to twelve months from date of receipt at -20 to -80 centigrade.
Store it under sterile conditions at -20 to -80 centigrade. It is recommended that the protein be aliquoted for optimal storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Reconstitution
A hardcopy of COA with reconstitution instruction is sent along with the products. Please refer to it for detailed information.
