Host
Pichia Pastoris
Purity/Purification
Greater than 98.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
Form/Format
The protein was lyophilized with 20mM sodium phosphate buffer.
Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
Sequence Length
211
Solubility
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized PDGF-AA in sterile 18M Omega -cm H2O not less than 100 ug/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
Biological Activity
The ED50 was found to be 1ng/ml corresponding to a Specific Activity of 1,000,000IU/mg calculated by the ability to stimulate the proliferation of mouse 3T3 fibroblasts (PNAS 94, 10205, 1997. Biochemistry, 1996, 35, 12077).
Preparation and Storage
Lyophilized PDGF-AA although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18 degree C. Upon reconstitution PDGF-AA should be stored at 4 degree C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18 degree C.For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
Related Product Information for PDGF AA active protein
Description: PDGF-AA Human Recombinant produced in Yeast is a homodimeric, glycosilated, polypeptide chain containing 2 x 110 amino acids and having a total molecular mass of 34 kDa. PDGF-AA is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Introduction: PDGF-AA, PDGF-BB and PDGF-AB, are potent mitogens for a variety of cell types including smooth muscle cells, connective tissue cells, bone and cartilage cells, and some blood cells. The PDGF is stored in platelet alpha-granules and released upon platelet activation. The PDGF is involved in a number of biological processes, including hyperplasia, chemotaxis, embryonic neuron development, and respiratory tubule epithelial cell development. Two distinct signaling receptors used by PDGF have been identified and named PDGFR-alpha and PDGFR-beta. PDGFR-alpha is high-affinity receptor for each of the three PDGF forms. On the other hand, PDGFR-beta interacts with only PDGF-BB and PDGF-AB.

Product Notes
The PDGF AA pdgfa (Catalog #AAA38597) is an Active Protein produced from Pichia Pastoris and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Platelet Derived Growth Factor-AA, Active Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
