Short Description: |
Recombinant-Human VEGF121-C-His-Avi protein was developed from hek293 and has a target region of C-His-Avi. For use in research applications. |
Conjugation: |
Biotin |
Formulation: |
Lyophilised from 0.2 µm filtered PBS solution pH7.4. |
Dilution Range: |
Upon receipt centrifuge vial to ensure maximal product extraction, recommended: 20sec, 5K RPM |
Storage Instruction: |
The lyophilized protein is stable for at least 1 year from date of receipt at-20°C. |
Endotoxin: |
Endotoxin content was assayed using a LAL gel clot method. Endotoxin level was found to be less than 0.1 ng/µg (1EU/µg). |
Gene Symbol: |
VEGFA |
Gene ID: |
7422 |
Uniprot ID: |
VEGFA_HUMAN |
Immunogen Region: |
Ala27-Arg147 |
Immunogen: |
DNA sequence encoding Human VEGF121 including a C-His-Avi tag was expressed in HEK293 Cells. The recombinant protein was then biotinylated site specific using the AVItag biotinylation technology. |
Post Translational Modifications | Vascular endothelial growth factor A, long form: Produced by use of an alternative upstream CUG codon and post-translationally processed into the N-terminal N-VEGF form and the C-terminal secreted VEGFA form. |
Function | N-VEGF: Participates in the induction of key genes involved in the response to hypoxia and in the induction of angiogenesis such as HIF1A. Involved in protecting cells from hypoxia-mediated cell death. VEGFA: Growth factor active in angiogenesis, vasculogenesis and endothelial cell growth. Induces endothelial cell proliferation, promotes cell migration, inhibits apoptosis and induces permeabilization of blood vessels. Binds to the FLT1/VEGFR1 and KDR/VEGFR2 receptors, heparan sulfate and heparin. Binds to the NRP1/neuropilin-1 receptor. Binding 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. Also binds the DEAR/FBXW7-AS1 receptor. Isoform VEGF165B: Binds to the KDR receptor but does not activate downstream signaling pathways, does not activate angiogenesis and inhibits tumor growth. |
