Recombinant Human Fibroblast Growth Factor-21 Thermostable
ScienCell’s Recombinant Human Fibroblast Growth Factor-21 Thermostable is engineered for greater stability, which is bioactive longer than native protein. The rhFGF-21ts shares more than 95% amino acid identity with the native rhFGF-21.
Fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF-21) belongs to the large FGF family which has at least 23 members. However, FGF-21, along with FGF-19 and FGF-23, belongs to a subfamily of atypical FGFs where it lacks a conventional heparin-binding motif. The native human FGF-21 protein exhibits poor pharmacokinetics properties, resulting in a great challenge for clinical application. ScienCell’s Recombinant Human Fibroblast Growth Factor-21 Thermostable is engineered for greater stability, which is bioactive longer than native protein. The rhFGF-21ts shares more than 95% amino acid identity with the native rhFGF-21.
