Source
Human FGF-10 Protein, His Tag, premium grade (FG0-H5147) is expressed from E. coli cells. It contains AA Gln 38 - Ser 208 (Accession # O15520-1).
Predicted N-terminus: Met
It is produced under our rigorous quality control system that incorporates a comprehensive set of tests including sterility and endotoxin tests. Product performance is carefully validated and tested for compatibility for cell culture use or any other applications in the early preclinical stage. When ready to transition into later clinical phases, we also offer a custom GMP protein service that tailors to your needs. We will work with you to customize and develop a GMP-grade product in accordance with your requests that also meets the requirements for raw and ancillary materials use in cell manufacturing of cell-based therapies.

Background
Fibroblast Growth Factor 10 (FGF 10) is an evolutionary conserved secreted growth factor mediating mostly mesenchymal to epithelial signaling. FGF 10 belongs to the FGF 7 subfamily and shares similar biochemical and amino acid sequences with its constituent members (FGF3, FGF 7 and FGF 22). As a paracrine FGF, FGF 10 elicits its biological responses by activating the fibroblast growth factor receptor 2b (FGF R 2b), is crucial for governing proximal distal outgrowth as well as patterning and acts upstream of the known apical ectodermal ridge (AER) marker FGF 8. FGF10 is also implicated in pancreatic cancer, and that overexpression of FGFR2b is associated with metastatic invasion.
