Synonyms
Endocrine Gland Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor; Human Endocrine Gland Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Recombinant; PROK1; egvegf; eg-vegf; prokineticin; EG-VEGF recombinant protein
Ordering
For Research Use Only!
Host
E Coli
Purity/Purification
>98%, as determined by SDS-PAGE and HPLC
Form/Format
Recombinant EG-VEGF was lyophilized from a 0.2 um filtered PBS solution.
Sequence
MRGATRVSIM LLLVTVSDCA VITGACERDV QCGAGTCCAI SLWLRGLRMC TPLGREGEEC HPGSHKVPFF RKRKHHTCPC LPNLLCSRFP DGRYRCSMDL KNINF
Sequence Length
105
Domain
4 helix cytokine core
Host Note
Optimized DNA sequence encoding Human EG-VEGF mature chain was expressed in Escherichia Coli.
Endotoxin
Endotoxin content was assayed using a LAL gel clot method.
Endotoxin level was found to be less than 0.1 ng/ug (1EU/ug).
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.
Molecular Weight Note
Native human EG-VEGF is generated by the proteolytic removal of the signal peptide, This molecule has a calculated molecular mass of approximately 10 kDa.


Recombinant EG-VEGF is a disulfide-linked monomer protein consisting of 87 amino acid residue subunits, and migrates as an approximately 10 kDa protein under non-reducing and reducing conditions in SDS-PAGE.
Preparation and Storage
The lyophilized protein is stable for at least 2 years from date of receipt at -20 degree C.
Upon reconstitution, this cytokine can be stored in working aliquots at 2 degree - 8 degree C for one month, or at -20 degree C for six months, with a carrier protein without detectable loss of activity.

Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
Related Product Information for EG-VEGF recombinant protein
This factor is identical with prokineticin-1 and is a member of the AVIT protein family. Expression of human EG-VEGF messenger RNA is restricted to the steroidogenic glands, ovary, testis, adrenal and placenta and is often complementary to the expression of VEGF. EG-VEGF has been identified as a mitogen specific for the endothelium of steroidogenic glands. EG- VEGF resembles VEGF in that it causes extensive angiogenesis and cyst formation when delivered in the ovary. EG-VEGF differs from VEGF in that it does not promote angiogenesis in the cornea or skeletal muscle.

NCBI Description

The protein encoded by this gene induces proliferation, migration, and fenestration (the formation of membrane discontinuities) in capillary endothelial cells derived from endocrine glands. It has little or no effect on a variety of other endothelial and non-endothelial cell types. Its expression is restricted to the steroidogenic glands (ovary, testis, adrenal, and placenta), is induced by hypoxia, and often complementary to the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), suggesting that these molecules function in a coordinated manner.

Uniprot Description

PROK1: Potently contracts gastrointestinal (GI) smooth muscle. Induces proliferation, migration and fenestration (the formation of membrane discontinuities) in capillary endothelial cells derived from endocrine glands. Has little or no effect on a variety of other endothelial and non-endothelial cell types. Induces proliferation and differentiation, but not migration, of enteric neural crest cells. Directly influences neuroblastoma progression by promoting the proliferation and migration of neuroblastoma cells. Positively regulates PTGS2 expression and prostaglandin synthesis. May play a role in placentation. May play a role in normal and pathological testis angiogenesis. Belongs to the AVIT (prokineticin) family.

Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 1p21

Product Notes

The EG-VEGF prok1 (Catalog #AAA553107) is a Recombinant Protein produced from E Coli and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The amino acid sequence is listed below: MRGATRVSIM LLLVTVSDCA VITGACERDV QCGAGTCCAI SLWLRGLRMC TPLGREGEEC HPGSHKVPFF RKRKHHTCPC LPNLLCSRFP DGRYRCSMDL KNINF. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Endocrine Gland Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor, Recombinant Protein" 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.
