Human recombinant FGF-16 (Fibroblast growth factor-16) protein, AF
Fibroblast Growth Factors-16 (FGF-16) is a 23.8 kDa member of the fibroblast Growth Factors with 207 amino acid residues. FGF-16 is mainly expressed from melanocytes, fibroblasts. FGF-16 involved embryonic development, cell proliferation and cell differentiation, and is required for normal cardiomyocyte proliferation and heart development.

Applications
Cell Culture
Purification
>95% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
Endotoxin
<0.1 EU per 1 μg of the protein by the LAL method.
Bioactivity
Measure by its ability to induce 3T3 cells proliferation. The ED50 for this effect is <31 ng/mL. The specific activity of recombinant human FGF-16 is > 3 x 104 IU/mg.
Form
The protein was lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution containing 1X PBS, pH 7.4. If you have any concerns or special requirements, please confirm with us.
Reconstitution
Centrifuge at 3000 rpm for 5 mins before opening. It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized protein in sterile H2O to a concentration not less than 100 μg/mL and incubate the stock solution at room temperature for at least 20 mins to ensure sufficient re-dissolved. Do Not Vortex! Vigorous shaking may impair the biological activity of the protein.
Molecular Weight
The protein has a calculated MW of 24.57 kDa. The protein migrates as 24 kDa under reducing condition (SDS-PAGE analysis) .
Storage Conditions
Lyophilized protein should be stored at -20°C for 1 year. Upon reconstitution, store at 2°C to 8°C for up to 1 week. Further dilute in a buffer containing a carrier protein or stabilizer (e.g. 0.1% BSA, 10%FBS, 5%HSA or 5% trehalose solution), protein aliquots should be stored at -20°C or -80°C for 3-6 months. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
