Related Product Information for anti-FGF antibody
Rabbit anti Human FGF basic polyclonal antibody recognizes human Fibroblast Growth Factor (FGF) basic, otherwise known as FGF 2 (fibroblast growth factor 2), a member of the heparin-binding growth factor family which exists in both cytosolic and nuclear isoforms, ranging in size from 18-24kDa, expressed by the majority of cells and tissues. FGF basic is a multi-functional growth factor identified as a potent inducer of angiogenesis, an important factor in wound healing, tumour vascularisation and cardiovascular disease and is pivotal for the development and maintenance of vascular integrity during embryogenesis. The recombinant basic FGF protein used as immunogen for development of Rabbit anti Human FGF basic polyclonal antibody corresponds to the C-terminal portion of the molecule (A135 - S288), present in all known isoforms of human FGF basic, thus all isoforms are expected to be recognized by this Rabbit anti Human FGF basic polyclonal antibody.

NCBI Description

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the fibroblast growth factor (FGF) family. FGF family members bind heparin and possess broad mitogenic and angiogenic activities. This protein has been implicated in diverse biological processes, such as limb and nervous system development, wound healing, and tumor growth. The mRNA for this gene contains multiple polyadenylation sites, and is alternatively translated from non-AUG (CUG) and AUG initiation codons, resulting in five different isoforms with distinct properties. The CUG-initiated isoforms are localized in the nucleus and are responsible for the intracrine effect, whereas, the AUG-initiated form is mostly cytosolic and is responsible for the paracrine and autocrine effects of this FGF.

Uniprot Description

FGF2: Plays an important role in the regulation of cell survival, cell division, angiogenesis, cell differentiation and cell migration. Functions as potent mitogen in vitro. Monomer. Homodimer. Interacts with FGFR1, FGFR2, FGFR3 and FGFR4. Affinity between fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) and their receptors is increased by heparan sulfate glycosaminoglycans that function as coreceptors. Interacts with CSPG4, FGFBP1 and TEC. Found in a complex with FGFBP1, FGF1 and FGF2. Expressed in granulosa and cumulus cells. Expressed in hepatocellular carcinoma cells, but not in non- cancerous liver tissue. Belongs to the heparin-binding growth factors family. 4 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative initiation.

Product Notes

The FGF fgf2 (Catalog #AAA221339) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. AAA Biotech's FGF BASIC can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, ELISA (EIA), Functional Assays (FN), Immunohistology Paraffin*, Western Blot (WB). ELISA: Minimum Dilution: 0.5 ug/ml; Maximum Dilution: 2.0 ug/ml; Functional Assays: Minimum Dilution: 0.25; Maximum Dilution: 0.40 ug/ml; Immunohistology - Paraffin: Minimum Dilution: 0.25; Maximum Dilution: 0.5 ug/ml; Application Note: This product requires antigen retrieval using heat treatment prior to staining of paraffin sections. Sodium citrate buffer pH 6.0 is recommended for this purpose. Western Blotting: Minimum Dilution: 0.1; Maximum Dilution: 0.2 ug/ml. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the FGF fgf2 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "FGF BASIC, Polyclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
