Description
BTC Mouse Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 80 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 9.0kDa. The BTC is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Synonyms
Betacellulin, Probetacellulin.
Introduction
BTC is a potent mitogen for retinal pigment epithelial cells and vascular smooth muscle cells. The effects of betacellulin are probably mediated by the egf receptor and other related receptors.
Biological Activity
The ED50 was determined by the dose-dependent stimulation of the proliferation of mouse Balb/3T3 cells is < 0.01 ng/ml, corresponding to a Specific Activity of > 1.0×10 8 IU/mg.
Physical Appearance
Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
Formulation
Lyophilized from a 0.2µm filtered concentrated solution in 1×PBS, pH 7.4.
Solubility
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized BTC Mouse Recombinant in sterile 18M-cm H 2 O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
Stability
Lyophilized BTC although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution BTC should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
Purity
Greater than 95.0% as determined by: (a) Analysis by RP-HPLC. (b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE.
