VEGF121 Protein, Human (HEK293, His)

Customer Review

Based on 1 Customer Validation

VEGF121 Protein is a subtype of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor A (VEGF-A). VEGF-A is a key member of the VEGF family of cytokines that can promote neovascularization and increase vascular permeability. VEGF121 Protein, Human (121a.a, HEK293, His) is the recombinant human-derived VEGF121 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-6*His labeled tag. The total length of VEGF121 Protein, Human (121a.a, HEK293, His) is 121 a.a., with molecular weight of 16-18 kDa.

Description

Background

VEGF121 is a subtype of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor A (VEGF-A). VEGF-A is a growth factor active in angiogenesis, vasculogenesis, and endothelial cell growth. VEGF-A induces endothelial cell proliferation, promotes cell migration, inhibits apoptosis, and induces permeabilization of blood vessels. VEGF-A binds to the FLT1/VEGFR1 and KDR/VEGFR2 receptors, as well as heparan sulfate and heparin. It also binds to the NRP1/neuropilin-1 receptor. When VEGF-A binds to NRP1, it initiates a signaling pathway needed for motor neuron axon guidance and cell body migration, including the caudal migration of facial motor neurons from rhombomere 4 to rhombomere 6 during embryonic development. Additionally, VEGF-A binds to the DEAR/FBXW7-AS1 receptor.

Product Properties

Appearance

Lyophilized powder

Formulation

Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4.

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. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose).

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.
