VEGF C Human
目录号 : GP21050Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor C Human Recombinant
Sample solution is provided at 25 µL, 10mM.
VEGF-C Human Recombinant- contains 121 amino acids residues including 6 amino acid His-tag fused at the C-terminal end. As a result of glycosylation VEGF-C migrates as an 18-24 kDa protein in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions.
Purity | Greater than 90.0% as determined bySDS-PAGE. | Source | Sf9, Insect Cells. |
Phycical Appearance | Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder. | Shipping Condition | Shipped at Room temp. |
Synonyms | VEGF-C; Vascular endothelial growth factor C; VRP; Flt4 ligand; Flt4-L; Vascular endothelial growth factor-related protein; VEGFC. | ||
Solubility | It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized VEGF-C in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions. | ||
Stability | Lyophilized VEGF-C although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C . Upon reconstitution VEGF-C should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C .Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles. | ||
Biological Activity | Measured by its ability to induce to the VEGFR-3/FLT-4 receptor phosphorylation inPAEC/VEGFR3 cells and VEGFC induced proliferation of primary HDLEC cells. | ||
Formulation | Each mg of VEGF-C Human contains 50mg BSA and 1xPBS as buffer. |
VEGF-C, also known as Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Related Protein (VRP), is a recently discovered VEGF growth factor family member that is most closely related to VEGF-D. Human VEGF-C cDNA encodes a pre-pro-protein of 416 amino acids residues. It is almost identical to the mouse VEGF-C protein. Similar to VEGF-D, VEGF-C has a VEGF homology domain spanning the middle third of the precursor molecule and long N- and C-terminal extensions. In adults, VEGF-C is highly expressed in heart, placenta, ovary and small intestine. Recombinant human VEGF-C, lacking the N- and C-terminal extensions and containing only the middle VEGF homology domain, forms primarily non-covalently linked dimers. This protein is a ligand for both VEGFR-2/KDR and VEGFR-3/FLT-4. Since VEGFR-3 is strongly expressed in lymphatic endothelial cells, it has been postulated that VEGF-C is involved in the regulation of the growth and/or differentiation of lymphatic endothelium. Although recombinant human VEGF-C is also a mitogen for vascular endothelial cells, it is much less potent than VEGF-A.
