Active Recombinant Human GDNF Protein

• Cat.No.: GDNF-279G
• Product Overview: Recombinant Human GDNF Protein without tag was expressed in CHO.

Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: CHO
• Description: Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (G-DNF) is a neurotrophic factors belong to TGF-beta super family necessary for neuron survival and phenotypic maintenance in central and peripheral nervous systems. G-DNF has the potent to support the differentiation and survival of many neuron subpopulations, prominent for dopaminergic neurons and motor neurons, as well as Purkinje cells and sympathetic neurons. Sertoli cells, type 1 astrocytes, Schwann cells, neurons, pinealocytes and skeletal muscle cells are known to express GDNF in human. GDNF has shown to interact with GFRA2 and GDNF family receptor alpha 1. Mutations in this gene may be associated with Hirschsprung's disease, Parkinson's disease and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
