Description 

Basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF or Heparin-binding growth factor 2) is a single-chain polypeptide growth factor that plays a significant role in the process of wound healing and is a potent inducer of angiogenesis. Several different forms of the protein exist, ranging from 18-24 kDa in size due to the use of alternative start sites within the FGF-2 gene. It has a 55 percent amino acid residue identity to FGF-1 and has potent heparin-binding activity. The growth factor is an extremely potent inducer of DNA synthesis in a variety of cell types from mesoderm and neuroectoderm lineages. It was originally named basic fibroblast growth factor based upon its chemical properties and to distinguish it from acidic fibroblast growth factor. Recombinant Mouse basic FGF (FGF-2) produced in E. coli is a non-glycosylated single polypeptide chain containing 145 amino acids with a MW of 16,320 Da.

Each vial contains 50 ug lyophilized protein. Reconstitute with 0.5 ml sterile deionized water for a final concentration of 0.1 mg/ml.
