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 human EGF is a 6.2 kDa globular protein containing 53 amino acid residues including 3 intramolecular disulfide-bonds.

SpecificationsEGF (rh-Oligopeptide-1) is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain used for anti-wrinkle, whitening & anti-aging cosmetics

DESCRIPTION :

NTGF_EGF (rh-Oligopeptide-1) is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 54 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 6.3KDa.

ORIGIN :

Human

SOURCE :

A DNA sequence corresponding to the mature human EGF protein sequence was expressed in E. coli. EGF is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

PURITY :

> 98%, as determined by HPLC and Tricine-SDSPAGE (without β-mercaptoethanol)

FORMULATION :

Lyophilized from a concentrated (1mg/ml) solution in water containing 10 mM Acetic acid.

RECONSTITUTION :

It is recommended that sterile 20 mM sodium phosphate buffer (pH 7.0) be added to the vial to prepare a working stock solution of 0.1-1mg/ml.

STORAGE :

Lyophilized samples are stable for twelve months from date of receipt at -20 °C to -70 °C. Upon reconstitution, this protein can be stored under sterile conditions at -20 °C to -70 °C. Avoided repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
