Hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor (HGF/SF) is a paracrine cellular growth, motility and morphogenic factor. It belongs to the peptidase S1 family and Plasminogen subfamily, contains 4 kringle domains, 1 PAN domain and 1 peptidase S1 domain. HGF regulates cell growth, cell motility, and morphogenesis by activating a tyrosine kinase signaling cascade after binding to the proto-oncogenic c-Met receptor. HGF is secreted by mesenchymal cells and acts as a multi-functional cytokine on cells of mainly epithelial origin. Its ability to stimulate mitogenesis, cell motility, and matrix invasion gives it a central role in angiogenesis, tumorogenesis, and tissue regeneration.

| Bio-activity: |
Measured by its ability to induce IL-11 secretion by Saos-2 human osteosarcoma cells. The ED50 for this effect is 0.3-1.5 ng/mL. |
| Molecular Mass: |
Mol Mass: 26&53.7 kDa
AP Mol Mass: 32-38&55-65 kDa, reducing conditions. |
| Protein length: |
Gln32-Ser728 |
| Endotoxin: |
Less than 0.001 ng/μg (0.01 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 Tris-HCl, 500mM NaCl, pH 8.0. |
| 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. |
