Recombinant Human Fibroblast G

Fibroblast growth factor 23, FGF-23, Phosphatonin, Tumor-derived hypophosphatemia-inducing factor, HYPF.

FGF-23 is a member of the fibroblast growth factor (FGF) family. FGF family members possess broad mitogenic and cell survival activities and are involved in a variety of biological processes including embryonic development, cell growth, tissue repair, morphogenesis, tumor growth and invasion. FGF-23 inhibits renal tubular phosphate transport. This gene was identified by its mutations associated with autosomal dominant hypophosphatemic rickets (ADHR), an inherited phosphate wasting disorder. a high level expression of FGF23 was found in oncogenic hypophosphatemic osteomalacia (OHO), a phenotypically similar disease caused by abnormal phosphate metabolism.

FGF23 produced in Sf9 Insect cells is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 236 amino acids (25-251a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 26.4kDa (Molecular size on SDS-PAGE will appear at approximately 13.5-18kDa).
FGF23 is expressed with an 9 amino acid His tag at C-Terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
