Recombinant bovine HGF (NK1) protein is a potent, high-purity NK1 isoform of bovine hepatocyte growth factor (HGF). Bovine HGF differs from human HGF at several key amino acid residues that are predicted to affect bioactivity and receptor binding. Use of species-specific HGF growth factor will facilitate media optimization for cellular agriculture (cultivated meat) and veterinary applications. Also available is Qk061 Porcine HGF (NK1). The highly scalable animal-free manufacture and enhanced bioactivity make this suitable for chemically-defined media and reproducible scale-up.
