Background
Human Perpherin is a 53,651 dalton protein (470 amino acids) expressed in all PNS neurons and some CNS neurons, including a subset of cortical neurons, hippocampal neurons, and ventral horn spinal cord motor neurons. At an ultrastructural level, peripherin immunoreactivity is associated with the neurofilament portion of the cytoskeleton, being particularly abundant in the cell body. Peripherin protein has been shown to undergo upregulation during periods of trophic stress in cultured neurons, and mutations of the peripherin gene have been associated with the neurodegenerative disease amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
Description
Full-length recombinant peripherin was injected into laying hens, and then the IgY fraction was purified from hyperimmunized animals. These antibodies have been validated with human, mouse and rat tissues.
Synonyms
Peripherin, Neurofilament 4

Quality Control
Quality assurance analysis was performed using immunohistochemistry (at a dilution of 1:10000) using fluorescein-labeled goat anti-chicken IgY (1:500 dilution, Aves Labs Cat.# F-1005) as the secondary reagent.
