Alternative Name: Fibroblast Growth Factor-Basic (FGF-Basic)

Background: Fibroblast Growth Factor-basic (FGF-basic), also known as HBGF-2, is a non-glycosylated heparin-binding growth factor that belongs to the FGF family. FGF-basic is present in basement membranes and in the subendothelial extracellular matrix of blood vessels. FGF-basic signals through FGFR1, 2, 3 and 4 that plays an important role in the regulation of cell survival, cell division, angiogenesis, cell differentiation and cell migration.Recombinant mouse Fibroblast Growth Factor-basic (rmFGF-basic) produced in E. coli is a single non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 146 amino acids. A fully biologically active molecule, rmFGF-basic has a molecular mass of 16.4 kDa analyzed by reducing SDS-PAGE.
Synonyms: Fibroblast Growth Factor-basic, FGF-2, HBGF-2, Prostatropin, BFGF, FGFB,

Molecular Weight: 16.4 kDa, observed by reducing SDS-PAGE.
