Recombinant Human NGF

• Cat.No.: NGF-29918TH
• Product Overview: Recombinant full-length mature Human NGF, 1-119 aa.

Specification

• Description: This gene is a member of the NGF-beta family and encodes a secreted protein which homodimerizes and is incorporated into a larger complex. This protein has nerve growth stimulating activity and the complex is involved in the regulation of growth and the differentiation of sympathetic and certain sensory neurons. Mutations in this gene have been associated with hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy, type 5 (HSAN5), and dysregulation of this genes expression is associated with allergic rhinitis.
• Protein length: 119 amino acids
• Molecular Weight: 13.600kDa
• Source: E. coli
• Biological activity: The ED50 as determined by the ability to stimulate neurite growth in Chick E9 DRG cells is
• Form: Lyophilised:Centrifuge the vial prior to opening. Reconstitute in water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/ml. The solution can be diluted into other aqueous buffers and stored at –20°C for future use.
• Purity: >95% by SDS-PAGE
• Storage buffer: Preservative: None
• Storage: Lyophilized protein should be stored below -20°C. Upon reconstitution aliquot and store below -18°C to prevent freeze-thaw cycles.For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).
• Sequence Similarities: Belongs to the NGF-beta family.
