Overview

Product name

FGF9 protein
See all FGF9 products (5) ...

Protein description

Highly pure (>98%) recombinant mouse FGF9.

Expression host

E. coli

Properties

Purification notes

Sterile filtered Greater than 95% pure by SDS-PAGE and HPLC analyses. Endotoxin level is less than 0.1 ng per µg (1EU/µg).

Form

Lyophilised:
Reconstitute using 50ul of sterile H20.

Storage instructions

Store at +4°C short term (1-2 weeks). Aliquot and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze / thaw cycles.

Concentration

Concentration information loading...

Additional notes

mFGF-9 is fully biologically active when compared to standards. The ED50, as determined by the dose-dependent stimulation of thymidine uptake by BaF3 expressing FGF receptors, is less than 0.5 ng/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of >2 X 106 units/mg. Murine FGF-9 exerts full activity on both murine and human cells. For most in vitro applications, FGF-9 exerts its biological activity in the concentration range of 0.1 to 20.0 ng/ml.

Sequence notes

Recombinan t Murine FGF-9 is a 23.3 kDa protein containing 205 amino acid residues: PLGEVGS YFG VQDAVPFGN V PVLPVDSP VL LNDHLGQ SEA GGLPRG PAVT DLDHL KGILRRRQLY CRTGF HLEI FPNGTI QGT RKDHSRF GI LEFISIAV G LVSIRGVDS GLYLGMNEKG ELYGSEKLTQ ECVFREQFE E NWYNTYSS NL YKHVDTG RRY YVALNK DGTP REGTR TKRHQKFTHF LPRPV DPDK VPELYK DIL SQS

Protein info

Function

May have a role in glial cell growth and differentiation during development, gliosis during repair and regeneration of brain tissue after damage, differentiation and survival of neuronal cells, and growth stimulation of glial tumors.

Tissue specificity

Glial cells.

Involvement in disease

Defects in FGF9 are the cause of multiple synostoses syndrome type 3 (SYNS3) [MIM:612961]. Multiple synostoses syndrome is an autosomal dominant condition characterized by progressive joint fusions of the fingers, wrists, ankles and cervical spine, characteristic facies and progressive conductive deafness.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the heparin-binding growth factors family.

Post-translational
modifications

Three molecular species were found (30 kDa, 29 kDa and 25 kDa), cleaved at Leu-4, Val-13 and Ser-34 respectively. The smaller ones might be products of proteolytic digestion. Furthermore, there may be a functional signal sequence in the 30 kDa species which is uncleavable in the secretion step.
N-glycosylated.

Cellular localization

Secreted.
