• Protein Description: Recombinant mouse epidermal growth factor (EGF) is a 8.6 kDa globular protein containing 77 amino acids residues, including 3 intra-molecular disulfide bonds. EGF is a potent growth factor that stimulates the proliferation of various epidermal and epithelial cells. Additionally, EGF has been shown to inhibit gastric secretion, and to be involved in wound healing. EGF signals through a receptor known as c-erbB, which is a class I tyrosine kinase receptor. Recombinant mouse EGF protein, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E.coli and purified by conventional column chromatography, after refolding of the isolated inclusion bodies in a renaturation buffer.
• Storage: Store undiluted at 2-8°C for one week or (in aliquots) at -20°C to -80°C for longer.
  Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
  
• Stability: Shelf life: one year from despatch.

• Summary: This gene encodes epidermal growth factor (EGF), the founding member of the EGF family of growth factors that are implicated in cell proliferation and differentiation. The encoded protein can localize to the membrane and function in juxtacrine signaling or undergo proteolytic processing to generate a soluble form of the hormone. Mice lacking the encoded protein do not exhibit an abnormal phenotype but transgenic mice overexpressing the encoded protein exhibit hypospermatogenesis. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016]
