VEGF is a homodimeric protein formed through disulfide bonds of a 19.2 kDa monomer. In both our product and those from other manufacturers, protein bands were identified at about 20 kDa for the monomer under reducing conditions and at about 40 kDa for the dimer under non-reducing conditions when analyzed by SDS-PAGE.
