Alexa FluorTM 488-Labeled Human EGF Protein, zijn TagStar Staining

Human epidermal growth factor (EGF) is also known as HOMG4 and URG, and is a growth factor that plays an important role in the regulation of cell growth, proliferation, and differentiation by binding to its receptor EGFR. Epidermal growth factor can be found in human platelets, macrophages, urine, saliva, milk, and plasma. EGF is the founding member of the EGF-family of proteins. Members of this protein family have highly similar structural and functional characteristics. All family members contain one or more repeats of the conserved amino acid sequence. The biological effects of salivary EGF include healing of oral and gastroesophageal ulcers, inhibition of gastric acid secretion, stimulation of D synthesis as well as mucosal protection from intraluminal injurious factors such as gastric acid, bile acids, pepsin, and trypsin and to physical, chemical and bacterial agents. Because of the increased risk of cancer by EGF, inhibiting it decreases cancer risk.

Alexa Fluor 488-Labeled Human EGF Protein, His Tag (EGF-HA243) is produced via conjugation of AF488 to Human EGF, His Tag with a new generation site-specific technology under Star Staining labeling platform. Human EGF, His Tag is expressed from human 293 cells (HEK293) . It contains AA Asn 971 - Arg 1023 (Accession # P01133-1) .

This protein carries a polyhistidine tag at the N-terminus.
