Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody targets fibroblast growth factor 1 (gene FGF1) in human samples and is validated for Western blot. The predicted molecular weight is 17.5 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 36 kDa.
Fibroblast growth factor 1 (FGF1, acidic FGF) is a heparin-binding growth factor that activates all FGF receptors. It lacks a classical signal peptide but acts as a potent mitogen, and it regulates cell proliferation, survival, migration, differentiation and angiogenesis. FGF1 is studied in tissue repair, development and metabolic regulation.

Immunogen
Recombinant human FGF1 fragment (Asn22–Leu146), expressed in E. coli. Sequence identity with the mouse and rat orthologs: 97%.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human. UniProt describes fibroblast growth factor 1 as secreted and also located in the cytoplasm and nucleus. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Predominantly expressed in kidney and brain.
