Customer Review

Based on 1 Customer Validation

HGF Protein, a potent mitogen, stimulates mature hepatocyte cell growth, acting as a hepatotrophic factor for various tissues.It activates MAPK signaling through TMPRSS13 cleavage and activates MET receptor tyrosine kinase by promoting its dimerization.Structurally, HGF comprises alpha and beta chains connected by a disulfide bond.Interaction with SRPX2 enhances its mitogenic activity.HGF Protein, Rat (GST) is the recombinant rat-derived HGF protein, expressed by E.coli , with N-GST labeled tag.

Background

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

Product Properties

Appearance

Lyophilized powder.

Formulation

Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of 10 mM Tris-HCl, 1 mM EDTA, 6% trehalose, pH 8.0.
Note: For SPR assay, please replace the buffer. Primary amine components (e.g., Tris, imidazole) can affect protein-coupled chips.

Endotoxin Level

<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.

Reconstitution

It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH2O.

Storage & Stability

Stored at -20°C for 2 years from date of receipt. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.

Shipping

Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.
