Recombinant Human FGF-16

Product Details

Catalog Number: 100-29
Description:
Recombinant Human FGF-16

FGF-16 is a heparin-binding growth factor that is a member of the FGF family. Proteins of this family play a central role during prenatal development, postnatal growth and regeneration of a variety of tissues, by promoting cellular proliferation and differentiation. FGF-16 signals through FGFR 2c and 3c. FGF-16 plays a role in the development of the central nervous system. Recombinant Human FGF-16 is a 23.6 kDa protein consisting of 206 amino acid residues.

Recombinant human FGF-16 for primary rat cardiomyocyte cultures
Used 100ng/ml concentration on neonatal rat cardiomyocytes with and without FBS in DMEM medium. Able to show binding affinity to FGF-16 receptors and subcellular signaling pathway activation. Great product.
