VEGF120 Protein, Mouse (Biotinylated, His-Avi)
VEGF-A Protein is a key member of the VEGF family of cytokines. VEGF-A participates in angiogenesis, vasculogenesis, and endothelial cell growth, inducing endothelial cell proliferation, promoting cell migration, inhibiting cell apoptosis, and inducing vascular permeability. VEGF-A stimulates endothelial cell mitogenesis and cell migration. VEGF120 Protein, Mouse (Biotinylated, His-Avi) is the recombinant mouse-derived VEGF120 protein, expressed by E. coli , with N-His, N-Avi labeled tag. The total length of VEGF120 Protein, Mouse (Biotinylated, His-Avi) is 120 a.a., with molecular weight of 22-24 kDa.
- Species: Mouse

Background
VEGF-A is a key member of the VEGF family of cytokines, along with VEGF-B, -C, -D, and PGF. VEGF-A participates in angiogenesis, vasculogenesis, and endothelial cell growth, inducing endothelial cell proliferation, promoting cell migration, inhibiting cell apoptosis, and inducing vascular permeability. VEGF-A binds to the FLT1/VEGFR1, KDR/VEGFR2 and DEAR/FBXW7-AS1 receptors, heparan sulfate and heparin. VEGF-A also binds to NRP1 initiates a signaling pathway needed for motor neuron axon guidance and cell body migration, including for the caudal migration of facial motor neurons from rhombomere 4 to rhombomere 6 during embryonic development. VEGF-A stimulates endothelial cell mitogenesis and cell migration. VEGF-A is also a vasodilator and increases microvascular permeability[1][2][3][4][5].

Product Properties
Lyophilized powder.
It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH2O. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose).
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.
Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.
