There are 4 known forms of FGF8 produced by alternative splicing: FGF8a, FGF-8b, FGF-8e and FGF-8f. The human and mouse FGF8b are identical of aa sequences. FGF-8 plays an important role in the regulation of embryonic development, cell proliferation, cell differentiation and cell migration. FGF-8 is required for normal brain, eye, ear and limb development during embryogenesis. It is also required for normal development of the gonadotropin- releasing hormone (GnRH) neuronal system.Recombinant human Fibroblast Growth Factor-8 (rhFGF-8) produced in E.coli is a single non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 194 amino acids. A fully biologically active molecule, rhFGF-8 has a molecular mass of 22.5kDa analyzed by reducing SDS-PAGE and is obtained by proprietary chromatographic techniques at GenScript.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BioWorld","offers":[{"title":"10μg","offer_id":42882235891891,"sku":"BK0044-10","price":217.41,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"50μg","offer_id":42882235924659,"sku":"BK0044-50","price":691.77,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0305\/9482\/6376\/products\/thumbnail_d1447bac803ec9be_11-14-09-19-51_6d5b50e0-0b2e-4947-afa0-e92a3d084764.jpg?v=1702049802","url":"https:\/\/afsbio.com\/products\/recombinant-fgf-8-human-bk0044","provider":"AFSBio Inc.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
