Product Name:Human PLGF 2 Recombinant Protein
Product Code:RPPB0864
Size:10µg
Species:Human
Target:PLGF 2
Synonyms:PIGF, PGF, PlGF-2, PLGF-2.
Source:Insect Cells
Physical Appearance:Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
Formulation:Lyophilized from a concentrated (1mg/ml) solution containing BSA.
Solubility:It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Placenta Growth Factor 2 in sterile 20mM acetic acid not less than 100�g/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
Stability:Lyophilized Placenta Growth Factor-2 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution PLGF2 should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C.Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
Purity:Greater than 80.0% as determined by:(a) Analysis by RP-HPLC.(b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE.
Biological Activity:PlGF-2 human Recombinant can bind to immobilized rh-sFlt-1 (100ng/well) with a linear range at 0.3�10ng/ml.

PLGF is a growth factor active in angiogenesis, and endothelial cell growth, stimulating their proliferation and migration. It binds to receptor vegfr-1/flt1.PLGF-2 binds neuropilin-1 and 2 in a dependent manner.

Placenta Growth Factor-2 Human Recombinant produced in insect cells is a homodimer, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 2 x 152 amino acids and having a total molecular mass of 44 kDa. The PLGF-2 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

UniProt Protein Function:PGF: Growth factor active in angiogenesis and endothelial cell growth, stimulating their proliferation and migration. It binds to the receptor FLT1/VEGFR-1. Isoform PlGF-2 binds NRP1/neuropilin-1 and NRP2/neuropilin-2 in a heparin-dependent manner. Also promotes cell tumor growth. Belongs to the PDGF/VEGF growth factor family. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.
