Host: | HEK293 cells |
Note: | STRICTLY FOR FURTHER SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH USE ONLY (RUO). MUST NOT TO BE USED IN DIAGNOSTIC OR THERAPEUTIC APPLICATIONS. |
Formulation: | Lyophilised from a 0.22 Mu m filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4. |
Storage Instruction: | Store at-20°C for up to 1 year from the date of receipt, and avoid repeat freeze-thaw cycles. |
Determination Method: | < 0.1 EU/Mu g of the protein by LAL method. |
Immunoreactivity: | 1.Measured by its ability to stimulate EGF Receptor autophosphorylation in A431 cells.1-10 ng/mL of Recombinant Human EGF can effectively enhance EGF Receptor autophosphorylation.|2.Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. Immobilized H |
Gene Symbol: | EGF |
Gene ID: | 1950 |
Uniprot ID: | EGF_HUMAN |
Immunogen Region: | Asn 971-Arg 1023 |
Immunogen: | Recombinant Human EGF Protein is produced by HEK293 cells expression system. The target protein is expressed with sequence (Asn 971-Arg 1023) of human EGF (Accession #NP_001954.2) fused with hFc, 6×His tag at the C-terminus. |
Immunogen Sequence: | NSDSECPLSHDGYCLHDGVC MYIEALDKYACNCVVGYIGE RCQYRDLKWWELR |
Tissue Specificity | Expressed in kidney, salivary gland, cerebrum and prostate. |
Post Translational Modifications | O-glycosylated with core 1-like and core 2-like glycans. It is uncertain if Ser-954 or Thr-955 is O-glycosylated. The modification here shows glycan heterogeneity: HexHexNAc (major) and Hex2HexNAc2 (minor). |
Function | EGF stimulates the growth of various epidermal and epithelial tissues in vivo and in vitro and of some fibroblasts in cell culture. Magnesiotropic hormone that stimulates magnesium reabsorption in the renal distal convoluted tubule via engagement of EGFR and activation of the magnesium channel TRPM6. Can induce neurite outgrowth in motoneurons of the pond snail Lymnaea stagnalis in vitro. |
