Name : Human EGFR/HER1 Protein

Product Source :
Recombinant Human EGFR/HER1 Protein is expressed from HEK293 with hFc tag at the C-Terminus. It contains Leu25-Ser645.[Accession | P00533]

Molecular Weight :
The protein has a predicted MW of 95.2 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 110-140 kDa based on Tris-Bis PAGE result.

Endotoxin Level :
Less than 1EU per μg by the LAL method.

Purity :
> 95% as determined by Tris-Bis PAGE> 95% as determined by HPLC

Formulation :
Lyophilized from 0.22μm filtered solution in PBS (pH 7.4). Normally 8% trehalose is added as protectant before lyophilization.

Reconstitution :
Centrifuge the tube before opening. Reconstituting to a concentration more than 100 μg/ml is recommended. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water.

Storage and Stability :
-20 to -80°C for 12 months as supplied from date of receipt. -80°C for 3-6 months after reconstitution. 2-8°C for 2-7 days after reconstitution. Recommend to aliquot the protein into smaller quantities for optimal storage. Please minimize freeze-thaw cycles.

Product Concentration :
Tris-Bis PAGE Human EGFR on Tris-Bis PAGE under reduced condition. The purity is greater than 95%. SEC-HPLC The purity of Human EGFR is greater than 95% as determined by SEC-HPLC. ELISA Data Immobilized Human EGF, No Tag at 2μg/ml (100μl/well) on the plate. Dose response curve for Human EGFR, hFc Tag with the EC50 of 2.4μg/ml determined by ELISA.

Background :
The epidermal growth factor receptor is a transmembrane protein that is a receptor for members of the epidermal growth factor family of extracellular protein ligands. The epidermal growth factor receptor is a member of the ErbB family of receptors, a subfamily of four closely related receptor tyrosine kinases: EGFR, HER2/neu, Her 3 and Her 4. Receptor tyrosine kinase binding ligands of the EGF family and activating several signaling cascades to convert extracellular cues into appropriate cellular responses.

Synonyms :
ErbB; EC 2.7.10; EC 2.7.10.1; EGFR; mENA; LEGFR; ERBB; ERBB1; HER1; PIG61; NISBD2
