产品描述 概述Fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF-21) encoded by the FGF-21 gene belongs to the large FGF family and it is specifically induced by HMGCS2 activity. In mice, brown adipose tissue becomes a source of systemic FGF-21 after cold exposure. FGF-21 stimulates glucose uptake in differentiated adipocytes via the induction of glucose transporter SLC2A1/GLUT1 expression (but not SLC2A4/GLUT4 expression) and the activity depends on the presence of KLB. Recombinant rat FGF-21 contains 180 amino acids residues and show limited binding to heparin. In addition, rat FGF-21 respectively shows 81 % and 92 % a.a. identity to human and murine FGF-21, and it show activity on murine and human cells. 使用说明This material is offered by Novin Biotech for research, laboratory or further evaluation purposes. NOT FOR HUMAN USE. 技术规格| Physical Appearance | White lyophilized powder. | | Purity | > 95 % by SDS-PAGE and HPLC analyses. | | Source | Escherichia coli. | | Biological Activity | Fully biologically active when compared to standard. The ED50 as determined by thymidine uptake assay using FGF-receptors transfected BaF3 cells is less than 0.5 μg/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of > 2.0 × 103 IU/mg in the presence of 5 μg/ml of rMuKlotho-β and 10 μg/ml of heparin. | | Formulation | Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered concentrated solution in PBS, 500 mM NaCl, pH 7.4. | | Endotoxin | Less than 1EU/μg of rRtFGF-21 as determined by LAL method. | | Reconstitution | We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Reconstitute in sterile distilled water or aqueous buffer containing 0.1 % BSA to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL. Stock solutions should be apportioned into working aliquots and stored at ≤ -20 °C. Further dilutions should be made in appropriate buffered solutions. | | AA Sequence | AYPISDSSPL LQFGGQVRQR YLYTDDDQDT EAHLEIREDG TVVGTAHRSP ESLLELKALK PGVIQILGVK ASRFLCQQPD GTLYGSPHFD PEACSFRELL LKDGYNVYQS EAHGLPLRLP QKDSQDPATR GPVRFLPMPG LPHEPQEQPG VLPPEPPDVG SSDPLSMVEP LQGRSPSYAS |
