Animal-Free Recombinant Human FGF-19 (Legacy Tebubio ref. 167AF-100-32). The FGF family plays central roles during prenatal development and postnatal growth and regeneration of a variety of tissues, by promoting cellular proliferation and differentiation. FGF-19, a member of the FGF family, is a high-affinity heparin dependent ligand for FGFR4. FGF-19 is expressed during brain development and embryogenesis. Recombinant Human FGF-19 is a 21.8 kDa protein containing 195 amino acid residues.

Animal-Free Recombinant Human FGF-21 (Legacy Tebubio ref. 167AF-100-42). FGF-21 is a secreted growth factor that is a member of the FGF family. Proteins of this family play a central role during prenatal development, postnatal growth and regeneration of a variety of tissues, by promoting cellular proliferation and differentiation. FGF-21, in the presence of beta-Klotho as a protein cofactor, signals through FGFR 1c and 4 receptors, and stimulates insulin-independent glucose uptake by adipocytes. Recombinant Human FGF-21 is a 19.5 kDa protein containing 182 amino acid residues.

Animal-Free Recombinant Human GDF-5 (BMP-14/CDMP-1) (Legacy Tebubio ref. 167AF-120-01). GDF-5 is expressed in long bones during embryonic development and postnatally in articular cartilage. Mutations in the GDF-5 gene have been implicated in Hunter-Thompson type dwarfism and in Grebe Syndrome, which is characterized by short stature, extra digits, and short and deformed extremities. The mature and functional form of GDF-5 is a homodimer of two 120 amino-acid polypeptide chain (monomers) linked by a single disulfide bond. Each GDF-5 monomer is expressed as the C-terminal part of a precursor polypeptide, which also contains a 27 amino acid signal peptide and a 354 amino acid propeptide. This precursor undergoes intracellular dimerization, and upon secretion it is processed by a furin-type protease. Recombinant Human GDF-5 (BMP-14/CDMP-1) is a 27.0 kDa homodimeric disulfide-linked protein consisting of two 120 amino acid polypeptide chains.

Animal-Free Recombinant Human BMP-13/CDMP-2 (Legacy Tebubio ref. 167AF-120-04). BMP-13 is expressed in hypertrophic chondrocytes during embryonic development of long bones. Continued postnatal expression of BMP-13 in articular cartilage suggests that it plays a regulatory role in the growth and maintenance of articular cartilage. Adenovirus-mediated BMP-13 gene transfer to rabbit bone marrow stem cells have been reported to augment periosteal repair of osteochondral defects. The functional form of BMP-13/CDMP-2 is a disulfide-linked homodimer of two 120 amino-acid polypeptide chains. This 27.5 kDa protein is obtained by proteolytic processing of a biologically inactive precursor protein of 97.7kDa.

Animal-Free Recombinant Human BMP-4 (E.coli derived) (Legacy Tebubio ref. 167AF-120-05ET). Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) constitute a subfamily within the TGF-beta superfamily of structurally related signaling proteins. Members of this superfamily are widely distributed throughout the body, and are involved in diverse physiological processes during both pre- and postnatal life. Like BMP-7, BMP-4 is involved in the development and maintenance of bone and cartilage. Reduced expression of BMP-4 is associated with a number of bone diseases, including the heritable disorder Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva. PeproTech's E.coli-derived BMP-4 is a fully active homodimeric protein consisting of two 106 amino acid subunits, which correspond to amino acids 303-408 of the full length BMP-4 precursor. The calculated molecular weight of Recombinant Human BMP-4 (E.coli-derived) is 23.9 kDa.
