Cat. No.	Z101655
Name	Recombinant Human GGF2
Description	Neuregulins (NDF, heregulin, GGF ARIA, or SMDF) are EGF-like growth and differentiation factors that signal through tyrosine kinase receptors of the ErbB family. The ErbB2 and ErbB4 receptors cooperate in transmission of neuregulin-1 signals in the heart, whereas ErbB2 and ErbB3 cooperate in neural crest cells.
Organism	Human (H. sapiens)
Unit quantity	50 µg
Family	Other Growth Factors/Cytokines
Tag	Tag Free
Aliases	ARIA, GGF, GGF2, HGL, HRG, HRG1, HRGA, MST131, MSTP131, NDF, NRG1-IT2, SMDF
Gene Symbol	GGF2
Gene ID	3084
Accession Number	Q02297
Source	E. coli
Species	Human (H. sapiens)
Appearance	Lyophilized Powder
Molecular Weight	34 kDa
Endotoxin Level	<1.0 EU/µg of recombinant protein as determined by the LAL method.
Purity	>95% as determined by SDS-PAGE
Formulation	Recombinant GGF2 was lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered 0.02M PB, pH 7.0.
Function	The ED(50) was determined by the dose-dependent phosphorylation of human MCF-7 cells was found to be < 20 ng/mL, corresponding to a specific activity of 5.0 x 10^4 Units/mg.
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.
Shipping Conditions	This lyophilized protein is shipped at ambient temperature. Cold packs may be used if transit temperatures are elevated. The product remains stable during normal shipping conditions.
Storage	Upon receipt, store lyophilized protein at –70°C for long-term storage. Short-term storage at –20°C is acceptable if necessary. Once reconstituted, store at 2–8°C for up to 1 month, or at –20°C for up to 6 months. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
Usage	For research use only. Not for diagnostic or therapeutic use.
Material Citation	If use of this material results in a scientific publication, please cite the material in the following manner: Applied Biological Materials Inc, Cat. No. Z101655

How do I choose the right growth factor for my experiment?

Cell type: Different cells respond to different growth factors. Choose a growth factor that promotes the growth or differentiation of your target cell type.
Desired outcome: Whether you are studying proliferation, differentiation, or survival, different growth factors will promote different cellular behaviors.
Concentration and formulation: Different experiments may require varying concentrations of growth factors.

	What is the shelf life and storage condition of this product?
	The lyophilized protein is stable for at least one year from date of receipt at -70°C. Upon reconstitution, this cytokine can be stored in working aliquots at 2° - 8°C for one month, or at -20°C for six months, with a carrier protein without detectable loss of activity. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
