Formulation

Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4.Normally 5%-8% trehalose and   mannitol are added as protectants before lyophilization.

Reconstitution

Dissolved in sterile water, it is recommended to add 0.1% HSA or BSA   for long-term preservation.

STORAGE

Stability and Storage

12 months from date of receipt at -20°C to -70°C. After reconstitution,   it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for almost 6 months (with carrier   protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended   storage.

BACKGROUND

Hepatocyte growth factor receptor (HGFR), also known as c-Met or   mesenchymal-epithelial transition factor (MET), is a glycosylated receptor   tyrosine kinase (RTK) that has been shown to be overexpressed and/or mutated   in a variety of malignancies. Normal HGF/HGFR signaling is essential for   embryonic development, tissue repair or wound healing, whereas aberrantly   active HGFR has been strongly implicated in tumorigenesis, particularly in   the development of invasive and metastatic phenotypes. HGFR protein is a multifaceted   regulator of growth, motility, and invasion, and is normally expressed by   cells of epithelial origin.
