HGF Protein, Mouse (HEK293)

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) is the recombinant mouse-derived HGF protein, expressed by HEK293 , with tag free.

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.

1.Immobilized mouse HGF at 10 μg/mL (100 μL/well) can bind mouse MET-Fc and the EC₅₀ is 0.05-0.12 μg/mL.
2.Measured by its ability to inhibit TGFß1 activity on Mv-1-lu mink lung epithelial cells and the ED₅₀ is typically <4 ng/mL.
3.Measured in a cell proliferation assay using mIMCD‑3 mouse epithelial cells. The ED₅₀ for this effect is 9.804 ng/mL.

Approximately 90-95 kDa, 60-62 kDa and 30-33 kDa.

• 
  Greater than 95% as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE.

Lyophilized powder

Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4.

<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.

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. 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.
