Biological Activity
The activity of the protein can be measured by its stimulating effect on the proliferation of TF1 cells (Chevalier et al. 1994 Blood 83, 1479-85). EC50 130 ¡À 30 pM (TF1 cell assay).

Description
Pro NGF is the pro-form of the neurotrophin nerve growth factor. Like the mature protein pro NGF is characterized by the cysteine knot motif consisting of three cysteine bridges. The protein predominantly exists as a non-covalently linked homodimer.
Pro-Nerve Growth Factor Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 222 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 49,738 Dalton.
The Pro NGF is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Formulation
The sterile protein solution contains 50mM sodium phosphate buffer pH 7.2, 150mM sodium chloride.

Physical Appearance
Sterile Filtered clear solution.

Purity
Greater than 98.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE.

Source
Escherichia Coli.

Stability
Pro-Nerve Growth Factor although stable at 15¡ãC for 1 week, should be stored at -20¡ãC. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).
Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.

Synonyms
Human Pro-NGF, ProNGF.
