FGF basic/bFGF Protein, Human (P. pastoris, N-His)

Cat. No.: HY-P700479
COA Handling Instructions

FGF basic, or bFGF (fibroblast growth factor basic), initiates at an alternative CUG codon, marking a distinctive feature in translational initiation. This alternative start codon plays a pivotal role in regulating the expression and functional properties of FGF basic. FGF basic/bFGF Protein, Human (P. pastoris, N-His) is the recombinant human-derived FGF basic/bFGF protein, expressed by P. pastoris , with N-6*His labeled tag. The total length of FGF basic/bFGF Protein, Human (P. pastoris, N-His) is 146 a.a., with molecular weight of 17.9 kDa.

Description

FGF basic, or bFGF (fibroblast growth factor basic), initiates at an alternative CUG codon, marking a distinctive feature in translational initiation. This alternative start codon plays a pivotal role in regulating the expression and functional properties of FGF basic. FGF basic/bFGF Protein, Human (P. pastoris, N-His) is the recombinant human-derived FGF basic/bFGF protein, expressed by P. pastoris , with N-6*His labeled tag. The total length of FGF basic/bFGF Protein, Human (P. pastoris, N-His) is 146 a.a., with molecular weight of 17.9 kDa.

Background

Initiation of FGF basic, also known as bFGF (fibroblast growth factor basic), occurs at an alternative CUG codon. This alternative start codon represents a distinctive feature in the translational initiation of the protein, contributing to the unique regulatory mechanisms governing the expression and functional properties of FGF basic.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.

  • Specific Activity Calculator

The reconstitution calculator equation

Volume (to add to vial) = Mass (in vial) ÷ Desired Reconstitution Concentration

Volume (to add to vial) = Mass (in vial) ÷ Desired Reconstitution Concentration
= ÷

The dilution calculator equation

Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)

This equation is commonly abbreviated as: C1V1 = C2V2

Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)
× = ×
C1   V1   C2   V2

The specific activity calculator equation

Specific Activity (Unit/mg) = 106 ÷ Biological Activity (ED50)

Specific Activity (Unit/mg) = 106 ÷ Biological Activity (ED50)
Unit/mg = 106 ÷ ng/mL
