Usage Note: Always centrifuge tubes before opening . It is recommended to centrifuge at 12, 000 rpm for 1 minute.Then reconstitute the lyophilized Rat EGF protein using the buffer we provided not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
Storage Conditions: Lyophilized Rat EGF proteinshould be stored desiccated below -20°C. Upon reconstitution, the protein should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -20°C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.123% HSA or BSA) . Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
Shipping: The product is shipped at ambient temperature.
Background: EGF is a single-pass type I membrane protein, containing 8 LDL-receptor class B repeats and 9 EGF-like domains. EGF is a growth factor that stimulates the growth of various epidermal and epithelial tissues in vivo and in vitro and of some fibroblasts in cell culture. It results in cellular proliferation, differentiation, and survival.Additionally, EGF has been shown to inhibit gastric secretion, and to be involved in wound healing. EGF signals through a receptor known as c-erbB, which is a class I tyrosine kinase receptor. This receptor also binds with TGF-α and VGF (vaccinia virus growth factor) .
