Description
Heparin-binding EGF-like growth factor serves as both a potent mitogen signaling through EGFR/ErbB receptors and the physiological receptor for diphtheria toxin, making it a critical tool in cancer biology and receptor-ligand interaction studies. This tag-free recombinant protein spans the full mature sequence (residues 63–148) and demonstrates exceptional potency, with an ED50 below 1 ng/mL in Balb/c 3T3 proliferation assays corresponding to a specific activity exceeding 1.0 × 10⁶ IU/mg — providing a reliable basis for cell proliferation and survival assays, wound healing models, and in vivo tumor biology studies. Produced in *E. coli*, the protein lacks glycosylation, which makes it particularly appropriate for receptor-ligand binding and competition assays via SPR or ELISA where uniform molecular species and precise molar quantification are essential. Purity exceeding 97% by SDS-PAGE combined with endotoxin levels below 1.0 EU/μg satisfies the criteria typical for cell-based functional assays and antibody characterization workflows.
