Platelet Derived Growth Factor (PDGF) is a potent mitogen for a wide range of cell types including fibroblasts, smooth muscle and connective tissue. PDGF, which is composed of a dimer of two chains termed the A chain and B chain, can be present as AA or BB homodimers or as an AB heterodimer. Recombinant protein corresponding to human PDGF-BB, a disulfide-linked homodimer of two B chains, 218 total amino acids, expressed in E. coli. Molecular Weight: ~24.3kD Biological Activity: The ED50 as determined by the dose-dependent stimulation of BALB/c 3T3 cells proliferation is < 1ng/ml Applications: Suitable for use in ELISA. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: Lyophilized powder may be stored at -20C.
