Heregulin-B2 Human Recombinant

Neuregulin is a signaling protein for ErbB2/ErbB4 receptor heterodimers on the cardiac muscle cells, playing an important role in heart structure and function through inducing ErbB2/ErbB4 receptor phosphorylation and cardiomyocyte differentiation. Research on molecular level discovered that neuregulin recombinant could make disturbed myocardial cell structure into order and strengthen the connection between myocardial cells by intercalated discs re-organization. Pharmacodynamic experiments in animals showed that neuregulin (NRG1) recombinant can reduce the degree of damage on myocardial cells caused by ischemia, hypoxia and viral infection.
Description Recombinant Human Neuregulin-1 beta 2 produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 61 amino acids and having a total molecular mass of 7055 Dalton.
NRG-1 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Synonyms Neuregulin-1, NRG1, GGF, HGL, HRGA, NDF, SMDF, HRG, ARIA, GGF2, HRG1.
Source Escherichia Coli.
Amino Acid Sequence shlvkcaekektfcvnggecfmvkdlsnpsrylckcpneftgdrcqnyvmasfykaeelyq.
Purity >96% as determined by SDS-PAGE and HPLC
Formulation Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
Lyophilized from a 0.2µm filtered solution in 20mM PB, pH 7.4, containing 150mM NaCl.
Stability The lyophilized form of the protein is stable at room temperature for 3 weeks and at -20°C for at least 2 years from the date of receipt. Upon reconstitution, the protein should be stored at 4°C for no more than 7 days. The protein is stable at -20°C for six months. For long term storage, please store at -80°C and the addition of a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA) is recommended. Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
Biological Activity The activity measured by its ability to stimulate the proliferation of human MCF-7 cells grown under serum-free conditions corresponding to a specific activity of 1.2×104 Units/mg.
Solubility It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized NRG1 in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
Usage LABORATORY RESEARCH USE ONLY. Not intended for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes.
