Reducing and Non-Reducing SDS PAGE
Storage Buffer:
Lyophilized from a sterile (0.2 micron) filtered aqueous solution containing 10 mM sodium phosphate, 50 mM NaCl, pH 7.5.
Storage Instruction:
Stored at -20°C to-80°C for 12 month. After reconstitution with sterile water at 0.1 mg/mL, store at -20°C to -80°C for 3 months, store at 4°C for 1 month. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. If a precipitate is observed, centrifuge the solution thoroughly and use only the soluble fraction (removing it from the precipitate). A 10% overfill has been added to compensate for any loss of protein in the precipitate.
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the fibroblast growth factor (FGF) family. FGF family members possess broad mitogenic and cell survival activities, and are involved in a variety of biological processes, including embryonic development, cell growth, morphogenesis, tissue repair, tumor growth and invasion. This gene displayed oncogenic transforming activity when transfected into mammalian cells. The mouse homolog of this gene exhibits a restricted expression profile predominantly in the myogenic lineage, which suggested a role in muscle regeneration or differentiation. [provided by RefSeq
