Introduction
Hepatocyte Growth Factor (HGF) is a multifunctional growth factor which regulates both cell growth and cell motility. It exerts a strong mitogenic effect on hepatocytes and primary epithelial cells. HGF synergizes with Interleukin-3 and GM-CSF to stimulate colony formation of hematopoietic progenitor cells in vitro and may, therefore, also modulate hematopoiesis.
Description
Hepatocyte Growth Factor Human Recombinant produced in Baculovirus is a heterodimer, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 692 a.a and having a total molecular mass of 78.0 KDa.
The HGF is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
The HGF is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Source
Insect cells.
Physical Appearance
Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
Formulation
The sterile protein powder (1 mg/ml) is lyophilized from a solution containing 50mM acetic acid.
Solubility
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Hepatocyte Growth Factor in 50mM acetic acid to a concentration not less than 100µg/ml. Further dilutions should be made using buffer containing protein.
Stability
Lyophilized Hepatocyte Growth Factor although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution HGF should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C.
For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).
Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.

Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
Purity
Greater than 95.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
Biological Activity
The activity was assayed for scattering activity in the MDCK cell assay. The ED50 for this effect is typically at 2.0-5.0 ng/ml.
