Description: This targeted toxin (average molecular weight 63 kDa) recognizes FGF receptor-expressing cells including neuronal cell types, cancer cells, and lens epithelial cells with cross reactivity in several mammalian species. FGF-2 has been well characterized demonstrating binding to all four of the FGF high-affinity tyrosine kinase transmembrane receptors including binding to FGF receptor-5 with lower affinity. FGF-SAP is a chemical conjugate of rat FGF-2, or basic fibroblast growth factor, and the ribosome-inactivating protein, saporin (Cat. #PR-01). This product is routinely tested by cytotoxicity assay.
FGF-SAP specifically eliminates cells expressing the FGF receptor. All other cells are left untouched.
a tool for eliminating cells that express FGF receptor; targeted via rat FGF-2, or basic fibroblast growth factor, eliminated via saporin
