Background: Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF); also known as vascular permeability factor (VPF) and VEGF-A; is a potent mediator of both angiogenesis and vasculogenesis in the fetus and adult. It is a member of the platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)/vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) family and often exists as a disulfide-linked homodimer. VEGF-A protein is a glycosylated mitogen that specifically acts on endothelial cells and has various effects; including mediating increased vascular permeability; inducing angiogenesis; vasculogenesis and endothelial cell growth; promoting cell migration; inhibiting apoptosis and tumor growth. VEGF-A protein is also a vasodilator that increases microvascular permeability; thus it was originally referred to as vascular permeability factor.

Concentration:

Activity: Measured in a cell proliferation assay using human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC). The ED50 for this effect is typically 4-16 ng/mL.

Sequence: Met 1-Arg191

Purity: > 95 % as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE.

Formulation: Lyophilized from sterile 100 mM Glycine, 10 mM NaCl, pH 7.0.
Normally 5% - 8% trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween 80 are added as protectants before lyophilization.
Please refer to the specific buffer information in the printed manual.

Reconstitution: Please refer to the printed manual for detailed information.

Endotoxin: < 1.0 EU per μg of the protein as determined by the LAL method.

Calculated MW: 19.2 kDa

ObservedMW: 20&22 kDa
