Anti-FGF-2/basic FGF Antibody, clone bFM-2

Descrição detalhada : FGF basic (FGF2) is a member of the fibroblast growth factor (FGF) family. FGF family members bind heparin and possess broad mitogenic and angiogenic activities. FGF2 is involved in diverse biological processes, such as limb and nervous system development, wound healing, and tumor growth. FGF2 mRNA contains multiple polyadenylation sites, and is alternatively translated from AUG and non-AUG (CUG) initiation codons resulting in five different isoforms with distinct properties. The CUG-initiated isoforms are localized in the nucleus and are responsible for the intracrine effect, whereas, the AUG-initiated form is mostly cytosolic and is responsible for the paracrine and autocrine effects of this FGF., This antibody can cross-react with native and heat-inactivated basic FGF but will not neutralize biological activity. Upstate recommends anti-FGF-2/basic FGF, neutralizing (Catalog #05-117) for neutralizing activity.
