Product Specs

Introduction
Transforming growth factor betas (TGF-betas) are essential signaling molecules involved in embryonic development and cell communication. Mammals possess three types of TGF-betas: TGF-beta1, TGF-beta2, and TGF-beta3. Each type is initially synthesized as a precursor protein, which undergoes cleavage to generate a 112-amino acid polypeptide. This polypeptide remains linked to the inactive part of the molecule.
Description
Recombinant Human TGF-beta 1, produced in E. coli, is a single-chain polypeptide lacking glycosylation. It comprises 113 amino acids (residues 279-390) and has a molecular weight of 12.9 kDa. The purification of TGF-beta 1 (113 a.a.) is achieved through specialized chromatographic methods.
Physical Appearance
A clear, colorless solution that has been sterilized by filtration.
Formulation
The TGF-beta 1 solution is prepared in a buffer containing 10mM Sodium Citrate (pH 3.5) and 10% glycerol.
Stability
For short-term storage (2-4 weeks), the product should be kept at 4°C. For extended storage, it is recommended to freeze the product at -20°C. To preserve product integrity during long-term storage, adding a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA) is advisable. It is essential to minimize freeze-thaw cycles.
Purity
The purity of the product exceeds 95.0%, as determined by SDS-PAGE analysis.
