VEGF164 Protein, Mouse (164a.a, P.pastoris)

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.VEGF164 Protein, Mouse (P.pastoris) is the recombinant mouse-derived VEGF164 protein, expressed by P.pastoris , with tag free.

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]}.

Measured in a cell proliferation assay using HUVEC human umbilical vein endothelial cells. The ED₅₀ for this effect is 3.54 ng/mL, corresponding to a specific activity is 2.82×10⁵ units/mg.

Approximately 18-22 kDa in reducing conditions.

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

Lyophilized powder.

Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of 20 mM PB, 250 mM NaCl, pH 7.0.

<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.
