FGFR-1 beta Protein, Human (HEK293, His-Fc)

FGFR-1 beta is a member of the FGFR family that interacts with fibroblast growth factors and regulates mitosis and differentiation. It specifically binds acidic and basic fibroblast growth factors and is involved in limb induction. FGFR-1 beta Protein, Human (HEK293, His-Fc) is the recombinant human-derived FGFR-1 beta protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-8*His, C-hFc labeled tag.

The FGFR-1 beta protein is a highly conserved member of the fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) family, sharing a similar amino acid sequence with other members. FGFR family members exhibit different affinities for ligands and are distributed across various tissues. The full-length protein consists of an extracellular region with three immunoglobulin-like domains, a hydrophobic membrane-spanning segment, and a cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase domain. The extracellular portion interacts with fibroblast growth factors, initiating downstream signals that regulate mitogenesis and differentiation. FGFR-1 beta specifically binds to both acidic and basic fibroblast growth factors and plays a role in limb induction. Mutations in this gene have been associated with several syndromes and disorders, including Pfeiffer syndrome, Jackson-Weiss syndrome, Antley-Bixler syndrome, osteoglophonic dysplasia, and autosomal dominant Kallmann syndrome 2. Chromosomal aberrations involving this gene are linked to stem cell myeloproliferative disorder and stem cell leukemia lymphoma syndrome. Various alternatively spliced variants encoding different protein isoforms have been identified, although not all variants have been fully characterized. The FGFR-1 beta protein exhibits ubiquitous expression in multiple tissues, including the ovary, fat, and 25 other tissues.

Measured by its ability to inhibit FGF-acidic dependent proliferation of Balb/c 3T3 mouse fibroblasts and the ED₅₀ is typically ≤4 ng/mL

Lyophilized powder.

Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4. Normally 5 % - 8 % trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween 80 are added as protectants before lyophilization.

<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.

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

Stored at -20°C for 2 years. 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.
