Platelet derived Growth Factor AA (PDGF-AA), Human Recombinant
Catalog no.
GF-080-3
$150.00
Human PDGF-AA homodimer is produced by genetically engineered yeast, and purified by ionic exchange chromatography and reverse-phase HPLC. This polypeptide is composed of two identical polypeptide chains attached by disulfide bonds.
- Purity: Over 95% pure by N-terminal amino acid sequencing, amino acid composition, HPLC analysis, and SDS gel electrophoresis.
- Storage: Store at +4°C. Reconstitution is best in water or buffer near neutral pH.
- Stability: Several months at +4°C.
- Biological activity: Thematerial is fully active as measured by the mitogenic assay involving the stimulation of 3H-thymidine incorporation into NIH-3T3 cells.
- Formulation: Lyophilized powder
