Immunogen
Immunogen was full recombinant protein derived from human bFGF. This antibody was produced from a hybridoma resulting from the fusion of a mouse myeloma with B cells obtained from a mouse immunized with the immunogen. The IgG fraction of tissue culture supernatant was purified by protein A/G affinity chromatography.
Recommended ApplicationsELISA: By direct ELISA, at least 1:10, 000 dilution will yield positive signal using HRP conjugated rabbit anti-mouse Ig (Jackson Laboratories). It also can be used as capture purpose. Western Blot: Approx 17 kDa band was observed in recombinant protein and cell lysates(A431, Human colon carcinoma tissue or COLO 320DM). Its working dilution is used at 1:500-1000 as recommended. see picture below. (see image)Immunodetection Analysis: Representative blot from a previous lot. Lane 1.protein marker, Lane 2-3.recombinant protein(10-1ug/lane), Lane 3-4.Normal whole cell lysate as control. The membrane blot was probed with anti-bFGF primary antibody(1 µg/ml). Proteins were visualized using a goat anti-rabbit secondary antibody conjugated to HRP and chemiluminescence detection system. Other applications are not tested yet. Optimal dilutions should be determined by each laboratory for each application.
Reconstitution
Product is supplied as a powder obtained from lyophilization of purified antibody in PBS without preservatives. Reconstitute the antibody with sterile de-ionized water to a final concentration of 1 mg/ml.
Research AreaAngiogenesis, Cardiovascular Disease

Description

Description

Fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2), also referred to as basic FGF, is members of a family of growth factors that stimulate proliferation of cells of mesenchymal, epithelial and neuroectodermal origin. Additional members of the FGF family include the oncogenes FGF-3 (Int2) and FGF-4 (HST/Kaposi), FGF-5, FGF-6, FGF-7 (KGF), FGF-8 (AIGF), FGF-9 (GAF) and FGF-10. Members of the FGF family share 30-55% amino acid sequence identity and similar gene structure, and are capable of transforming cultured cells when overexpressed in transfected cells. Cellular receptors for FGFs are members of a second multigene family including four tyrosine kinases, designated Flg (FGFR-1), Bek (FGFR-L), TKF and FGFR-3

Specificity

The anti-human bFGF antibody reacts with recombinant protein and cell lysate at various concentrations. Its cross reactivity with mouse, rat and other species is not tested.

Storage

Store at 4°C if intended for use within one month, otherwise, store at -20°C to -80°C. The lyophilized antibody is stable for at least 18 months after the date of receipt when stored at -20°C to -80°C. After reconstitution, it can be aliquoted and stored frozen at -20°C to -80°C in a manual defrost freezer for 6 months without detectable loss of activity. Upon reconstitution, the antibody can also be stored for 30 days at 4°C. Please avoid freeze-thaw cycles, as this will lower the activity of the antibody.
