PDGF-AA, murine recombinant | 4483

Recombinant Mouse Platelet Derived Growth Factor-AA is a disulfide linked dimer comprised of 2 polypeptide chains of 126 amino acids each, with a dimeric molecular weight of 28.9 kDa. Belonging to a family of PDGF’s including PDGF-AA, PDGF-BB and PDGF-AB, they play an important role as a mitogen for a number of cell types. Recombinant Mouse PDGF-AA produced in E.Coli is a non-glycosylated homodimer.

Activity (Specifications/test method): Activity of GSK-3 was determined by an in vitro kinase assay using 100 ng Tau as substrate and 1 µg of the recombinant GSK-3 in a 20 µl reaction containing 25 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, 5 mM -glycerol phosphate, 12 mM MgCl, 2 mM DTT, 0.1 M Na3VO4, and 200 µM ATP. After 30 minutes incubation at 30°C, phosphorylation of Tau by the recombinant GSK-3 was determined by Western blot using a phospho-Tau antibody.
