Human Growth Factors & Cytokines
Recombinant Human FGF-21





 





		Synonyms :
Fibroblast Growth Factor-21, FGFL



		Description :
FGF-21 is a secreted growth factor that is a member of the FGF family.  Proteins of this family play a central role during prenatal development and postnatal growth and regeneration of a variety of tissues, by promoting cellular proliferation and differentiation.  FGF-21, in the presence of betaKlotho as a protein cofactor, signals through the FGFR 1c and 4 receptors and stimulates insulin independent glucose uptake by adipocytes.   Recombinant human FGF-21 is a 19.5 kDa protein containing 182 amino acid residues.

		Purity :
Greater than 90% by SDS-PAGE gel and HPLC analyses



		Endotoxin Level :
Endotoxin level is less than 0.1 ng per μg (1EU/μg).



		Biological Activity :
FGF-21, in the absence of betaKlotho, shows weak activity of thymidine uptake by BaF3 cells expressing FGF receptors.
