Protein Construction A DNA sequence encoding the human TGFa (P01135-1) (Val40-Ala89) was expressed and purified.
Bio-activity 1. Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. Immobilized human TGFa (cat:11252-HNAE) at 10 μg/ml (100 μl/well) can bind human EGFR-Fc (P10001-H02H). The EC50 of human EGFR-Fc (P10001-H02H) is 20-60 ng/ml.
2. Measured in a cell proliferation assay using Balb/3T3 mouse embryonic fibroblast cells.
The ED50 for this effect is 0.1-0.5ng/mL.
