Host
E Coli (Host protein expression may be lot-specific and can be subject to change during production, including bulk orders)
Form/Format
Recombinant FGF21 was lyophilized from 0.2 um filtered PBS solution, pH 7.0.
Purity/Purification
>96%, as determined by SDS-PAGE and HPLC
Preparation and Storage
The lyophilized protein is stable for at least 2 years from date of receipt at -20 degree C.
Upon reconstitution, this cytokine can be stored in working aliquots at 2 degree - 8 degree C for one month, or at -20 degree C for six months, with a carrier protein without detectable loss of activity.

Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
Molecular Weight
22,300 Da
OMIM
609436
3D Structure
ModBase 3D Structure for Q9NSA1
Domain
HBGF/IL1
Host Note
Optimized DNA sequence encoding Human Fibroblast Growth Factor-21 mature chain was expressed in Escherichia Coli.
Endotoxin
Endotoxin content was assayed using a LAL gel clot method.
Endotoxin level was found to be less than 0.1 ng/ug (1EU/ug).
Reconstitution
A quick spin of the vial followed by reconstitution in distilled water to a concentration not less than 0.1 mg/mL. This solution can then be diluted into other buffers.
Molecular Weight Note
Native human FGF21 is generated by the proteolytic removal of the signal peptide
and propeptide, this molecule has a calculated molecular mass of approximately 20kDa.

Recombinant Fibroblast Growth Factor 21 is a disulfide-linked monomer protein consisting of 182 amino acid residue subunits, and migrates as an approximately 20kDa protein under non-reducing and reducing conditions in SDS-PAGE.

Other Notes

Small volumes of FGF-21 recombinant protein vial(s) may occasionally become entrapped in the seal of the product vial during shipment and storage. If necessary, briefly centrifuge the vial on a tabletop centrifuge to dislodge any liquid in the container`s cap. Certain products may require to ship with dry ice and additional dry ice fee may apply.

NCBI Summary for FGF-21

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the fibroblast growth factor (FGF) family. FGF family members possess broad mitogenic and cell survival activities and are involved in a variety of biological processes including embryonic development, cell growth, morphogenesis, tissue repair, tumor growth and invasion. The function of this growth factor has not yet been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
