Human Fibroblast Growth Factor-22 Recombinant Protein - - 5 µg

Fibroblast Growth Factors (FGFs) are a 22 member family of proteins known to be involved in angiogenesis, wound healing and embryonic development. As a family, they bind to heparin and signal through four receptor tyrosine kinases called, FGFR1, 2, 3 and 4. Human FGF-22 is a member of the FGF-7 subfamily and is synthesized by multiple cell lines including neurons, keratinocytes and skeletal muscle myotubes. Human FGF-22 shares 86% homology with mouse FGF-22. Recombinant human FGF-22 is a non-glycosylated protein, containing149 amino acids, with a molecular weight of 17.3 kDa.
