Fibroblast Growth Factor 9 (FGF-9) belongs to 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. FGF-9 plays an important role in the regulation of embryonic development, cell proliferation, cell differentiation and cell migration. In addition, FGF-9 may have a role in glial cell growth and differentiation during development, gliosis during repair and regeneration of brain tissue after damage, differentiation and survival of neuronal cells, and growth stimulation of glial tumors.

| Product Overview: |
Recombinant Human Fibroblast Growth Factor 9 is produced by our E.coli expression system and the target gene encoding Met1-Ser208 is expressed. |
| Source: |
E.coli |
| Species: |
Human |
| Bio-activity: |
Measured in a cell proliferation assay using Balb/3T3 mouse embryonic fibroblast cells. The ED50 for this effect is 1-5 ng/mL. |
| Molecular Mass: |
Mol Mass: 23.44 kDa
AP Mol Mass: 25 kDa, reducing conditions. |
| Protein length: |
Met1-Ser208 |
| Endotoxin: |
Less than 0.1 ng/μg (1 EU/μg) as determined by LAL test. |
| Purity: |
Greater than 95% as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE. |
| Storage: |
Lyophilized protein should be stored at < -20 centigrade, though stable at room temperature for 3 weeks.
Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 4-7 centigrade for 2-7 days.
Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at < -20 centigrade for 3 months. |
| Storage Buffer: |
Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of 20mM PB, pH6.0. |
| Reconstitution: |
Always centrifuge tubes before opening. Do not mix by vortex or pipetting. It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water. Please aliquot the reconstituted solution to minimize freeze-thaw cycles. |
