HGF Protein, Mouse (HEK293, His)

Customer Review

Based on 1 Customer Validation

HGF Protein, a potent mitogen, stimulates mature hepatocyte cell growth and acts as a hepatotrophic factor for various tissues. As an activating ligand for MET receptor tyrosine kinase, HGF binds and promotes dimerization, activating MAPK signaling through TMPRSS13 cleavage. Structurally, HGF comprises alpha and beta chains connected by a disulfide bond. Interaction with SRPX2 enhances its mitogenic activity. HGF Protein, Mouse (HEK293, His) is the recombinant mouse-derived HGF protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-6*His labeled tag.

Biological Activity

Description

HGF Protein, a potent mitogen, stimulates mature hepatocyte cell growth and acts as a hepatotrophic factor for various tissues. As an activating ligand for MET receptor tyrosine kinase, HGF binds and promotes dimerization, activating MAPK signaling through TMPRSS13 cleavage. Structurally, HGF comprises alpha and beta chains connected by a disulfide bond. Interaction with SRPX2 enhances its mitogenic activity. HGF Protein, Mouse (HEK293, His) is the recombinant mouse-derived HGF protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-6*His labeled tag.

Background

HGF protein is a potent mitogen that stimulates the growth of mature parenchymal hepatocyte cells and acts as a hepatotrophic factor for a wide range of tissues and cell types. It functions as an activating ligand for the receptor tyrosine kinase MET, binding to it and facilitating its dimerization. HGF also activates MAPK signaling through the cleavage and activation of TMPRSS13. Structurally, HGF is composed of an alpha chain and a beta chain joined by a disulfide bond. Additionally, it interacts with SRPX2, promoting increased mitogenic activity of HGF.

Verified Bioactivity

Measured in a cell proliferation assay using mIMCD-3 mouse epithelial cells. The ED50 this effect is 5.0-15.0 ng/mL.
