The complete amino acid sequence of basic FGF (146 residues) from ovine pituitary glands has been established. This has been achieved by the sequence analysis of subnanomole amounts of the intact molecule and of peptides derived by enzymatic digestions with clostripain, chymotrypsin, pepsin and Staphylococcus aureus V8 protease. Microbore HPLC, employing 1-2 mm i.d. columns, was used to purify, concentrate and buffer-exchange the FGF peptides. A novel application of ion-pairing chromatography was employed to isolate peptides which were not retained on conventional reversed-phase systems. There is only one positional difference between the ovine and bovine basic FGFs, but there are 3 positional differences between ovine and human basic FGFS.

D005346 Fibroblast Growth Factors A family of small polypeptide growth factors that share several common features including a strong affinity for HEPARIN, and a central barrel-shaped core region of 140 amino acids that is highly homologous between family members. Although originally studied as proteins that stimulate the growth of fibroblasts this distinction is no longer a requirement for membership in the fibroblast growth factor family.
