HGF, human recombinant | 4509

Human Hepatocyte Growth Factor (HGF) is also known as Scatter Factor and Hepatopoeitin A. HGF is a potent mitogen for mature parenchymal hepatocyte cells and acts as a growth factor for a broad spectrum of tissues and cell types. Recombinant human HGF is an 80 kDa disulfide-linked heterodimeric protein consisting of the chain (463 amino acids) and the chain (234 amino acids).
