Description
EG-VEGF is a secreted angiogenetic mitogen growth factor expressed in the steroidogenic glands, ovary, testis, adrenal gland, and placenta. EG-VEGF induces proliferation, migration, and fenestration (formation of membrane discontinuities) in capillary endothelial cells derived from endocrine glands. The human EG-VEGF gene codes for a 105 amino acid polypeptide containing an N-terminal signal sequence of 19 amino acids. Recombinant Human EG-VEGF is a 9.6 kDa protein consisting of 86 amino acid residues, including ten cysteine residues that potentially form five pairs of intra-molecular disulfide bonds.

Reconstitution
|
We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Reconstitute in sterile distilled water or aqueous buffer containing 0.1% BSA to a concentration of 0.1-1.0mg/mL. Stock solutions should be apportioned into working aliquots and stored at ≤ -20 °C. Further dilutions should be made in appropriate buffered solutions.
