Application

LONG®EGF is a recombinant analog of human epidermal growth factor (EGF) that provides a potent and cost-effective mitogen for cell culture applications. LONG®EGF is ideal for both research and large-scale culture systems utilizing serum-free or low-level serum applications. It is effective in a variety of fibroblast and endothelial cell types and also acts synergistically with LONG®R3IGF-I (Catalog No. 85580C) to produce extremely potent results in cell culture. LONG®EGF is produced in a patented E. coli expression system free of animal-derived components.

Analysis Note

The biological activity is measured by the stimulation of protein synthesis in L6 myoblasts

Non-mammalian vertebrates have a robust ability to regenerate injured retinal neurons from Müller glia (MG) that activate the gene encoding the proneural factor Achaete-scute homolog 1 (Ascl1; also known as Mash1 in mammals) and de-differentiate into progenitor cells. By contrast

Cell-surface receptors frequently use scaffold proteins to recruit cytoplasmic targets, but the rationale for this is uncertain. Activated receptor tyrosine kinases, for example, engage scaffolds such as Shc1 that contain phosphotyrosine (pTyr)-binding (PTB) domains. Using quantitative mass spectrometry, here we
