PeptiGrowth’s proprietary technology offers a range of fully chemically synthesized (animal-component free) peptide growth factors for use in cell culture media as alternatives to conventional protein growth factors.
They possess the same capacities for receptor activation, cell proliferation, and differentiation as conventional growth factors and recombinant proteins but with greater cost effectiveness and ease of use, longer shelf-life, and no biological contaminants.
- GMP-grade products can be manufactured upon request
Product Summary
PG-001 is a synthetic peptide alternative to Hepatocyte Growth Factor (HGF). It induces dimerization of c-Met receptors and exerts biological activity equivalent to HGF.
Advantages of its use are numerous: 2 µg of PG-001 is equivalent to ~32 µg of recombinant HGF due to difference in molecular weight. This line of PeptiGrowth ingredients offers uniformity that can improve efficiency and data reproducibility and thus reduce the cost of R&D and manufacturing.
