Anti-NGF/NGF Beta Antibody Picoband® (HRP Conjugate)

• Background:

  Nerve growth factor is a polypeptide involved in the regulation of growth and differentiation of sympathetic and certain sensory neurons. The nucleotide sequence of human and mouse beta-NGF are very similar. The beta-subunits of nerve growth factor (NGFB) have been assigned to mouse chromosome 3 and human chromosome 1p22. The human gene for the beta subunit of nerve growth factor is located on the proximal short arm of chromosome 1. A mutation in the nerve growth factor beta gene (NGFB) causes loss of pain perception.

• Synonyms:

  Beta-nerve growth factor;Beta-NGF;NGF;NGFB;

• Gene Name:

  Beta-nerve growth factor

• UniProt:

  P01138

• Host:

  Rabbit

• Reactivity:

  Human

• Cross Reactivity:

  No cross-reactivity with other proteins.

• Immunogen:

  E. coli-derived human NGF/NGF Beta recombinant protein (Position: S122-A241). Human NGF/NGF Beta shares 92.4% amino acid (aa) sequence identity with rat NGF/NGF Beta.

• Clonality:

  Polyclonal

• Tissue Specificity:

  Expressed in thymus, peripheral leukocytes as T-cells and spleen. Isoforms A are preferentially expressed in effector T-cells (thymus and peripheral leukocytes) whereas isoforms B and isoforms C are preferentially expressed in naive T-cells (spleen). Isoforms B are expressed in naive T-cells after first antigen exposure and isoforms A are expressed in effector T-cells after second antigen exposure. Isoforms IA are widely expressed but not detected in liver nor pancreas, neural expression is strongest in corpus callosum. Isoforms IB are expressed mostly in muscle, cerebellum, placenta and thymus, neural expression in fetal and adult brain, strongest in corpus callosum.

• Applications:

  ELISA,WB

• Purification:

  Immunogen affinity purified.

• Concentration:

  Adding 0.2 ml of distilled water will yield a concentration of 500 μg/ml.

• Form:

  Lyophilized

  Add 0.2ml of distilled water will yield a concentration of 500ug/ml.

• Function:

  Nerve growth factor is important for the development and maintenance of the sympathetic and sensory nervous systems. Extracellular ligand for the NTRK1 and NGFR receptors, activates cellular signaling cascades through those receptor tyrosine kinase to regulate neuronal proliferation, differentiation and survival. Inhibits metalloproteinase dependent proteolysis of platelet glycoprotein VI (PubMed:20164177). .
