EGF (Animal Free)
Selected Variant
R20-072-AF
Size: 100 µg
EGF is a potent growth factor that stimulates the proliferation of various epidermal and epithelial cells. 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) . Recombinant Rat EGF is a 6.2 kDa globular protein containing 54 amino acid residues, including 3 intramolecular disulfide bonds.
