Stability of recombinant human epidermal growth factor in various solutions. 1989

F Araki, and H Nakamura, and N Nojima, and K Tsukumo, and S Sakamoto

The stability of recombinant human epidermal growth factor (hEGF) in various solutions was examined. hEGF degraded spontaneously and temperature-dependently to several degradation products in phosphate buffered saline or in 0.1 N acetic acid. The enzymatic degradation was observed in human serum or in pepsin/HCl solution. The structure and biological activities of these compounds were examined. The results suggest that the Asp11 and Trp50 residues are important for the receptor binding.

D004815 Epidermal Growth Factor A 6-kDa polypeptide growth factor initially discovered in mouse submaxillary glands. Human epidermal growth factor was originally isolated from urine based on its ability to inhibit gastric secretion and called urogastrone. Epidermal growth factor exerts a wide variety of biological effects including the promotion of proliferation and differentiation of mesenchymal and EPITHELIAL CELLS. It is synthesized as a transmembrane protein which can be cleaved to release a soluble active form.
