Description
Fibroblast Growth Factor-19 (FGF-19) is a member of the FGF family. FGF-19 interacts with FGFR1, FGFR2, FGFR3 and FGFR4. T FGF-19 takes part in the suppression of bile acid biosynthesis through downregulation of CYP7A1 expression, following positive regulation of the JNK and EPK1/2 cascades. FGF-19 stimulates glucose uptake in adiposytes and is a high affinity, heparin dependent ligand for FGFR4.
FGF19 Mouse Recombinant produced in HEK293 cells is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain (a. A 23-216) containing 205 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 23.0 kDa.
FGF19 is fused to a 6 amino acid His-tag at C-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques
