| Description |
Recombinant Human Fibroblast Growth Factor 12/FGF-12 is produced by our E. coli expression system. The target protein is expressed with sequence (Met1-Thr181) of Human FGF-12. |
| Names |
Fibroblast Growth Factor 12, FGF-12, Fibroblast Growth Factor Homologous Factor 1, FHF-1, Myocyte-Activating Factor, FGF12, FGF12B, FHF1 |
| Accession # |
P61328 |
| Formulation |
Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of 20mM PB, 150mM NaCl, 5mM EDTA, pH 7.5 |
| Shipping |
The product is shipped at ambient temperature. |
| 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 1X PBS.
Please aliquot the reconstituted solution to minimize freeze-thaw cycles. |
| Storage |
Lyophilized protein should be stored at < -20°C, though stable at room temperature for 3 weeks.
Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 4-7°C for 2-7 days.
Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at < -20°C for 3 months. |
| Purity |
Greater than 95% as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE. |
| Endotoxin |
Less than 0.1 ng/μg (1 IEU/μg). |

| Background |
Fibroblast Growth Factor 12 (FGF-12) is a member of the fibroblast growth factor (FGF) family. FGF-12 is probably involved in nervous system development and function. FGF-12 lacks the N-terminal signal sequence present in most of the FGF family members, but it contains clusters of basic residues that have been demonstrated to act as a nuclear localization signal. When transfected into mammalian cells, this protein accumulated in the nucleus, but was not secreted. The specific function of this gene has not yet been determined. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been reported. |
