Recombinant Human FGF-9
Induced proliferation of NR6R 3T3 cells assay for Human FGF-9. Cell proliferation was measured to calculate the ED50, which is as expected less than 2 ng/ml.
Non-reducing (-) and reducing (+) conditions in a 4 - 20% Tris-Glycine gel stained with Coomassie Blue. 1 μg of protein was loaded in each lane. Human FGF-9 has a predicted Mw of 23.4 kDa.

PODS® Growth Factors
This growth factor is also available as PODS® for sustained release, see here.Description
Fibroblast Growth Factor 9 (FGF-9) is a mitogen and survival factor for nerve and mesenchymal cells. FGF-9 functions as an autocrine and paracrine factor to support the growth and survival of motor neurons and prostate tissue. FGF-9 expression in the gonad is also necessary for sex determination.Activity Assay
Human FGF-9 is fully biologically active when compared to standard. The activity is determined by the dose-dependent induced proliferation of NR6R 3T3 cells and it is typically less than 2 ng/ml. This corresponds to an expected specific activity higher than 5.0 x 105 units/mg.AA Sequence
