Hepatocyte Growth Factor (HGF) activates c-Met receptors tyrosine kinase cascade, influencing cell growth and motility. Originating from mesenchymal cells, HGF is a multifunctional cytokine that plays a central role in angiogenesis, tumorigenesis, and tissue regeneration. Initially secreted as an inactive polypeptide, HGF undergoes cleavage to become an active heterodimeric molecule. The gene exhibits alternative splicing, resulting in diverse isoforms.
Molecular Weight:
The protein has a calculated MW of 80.48 kDa. The protein migrates as 75-100 kDa under reducing condition (SDS-PAGE analysis).
The protein was lyophilized from a 0.2 µm filtered solution containing 1X PBS, pH 7.4. If you have any concerns or special requirements, please confirm with us.
Sequence:
A DNA sequence encoding Human HGF Protein (P14210)(Gln 32-Ser 728) was expressed with polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus.
