Related Product Information for beta-NGF active protein
beta-NGF is a neurotrophic factor structurally related to BDNF, NT-3 and NT-4. These proteins belong to the cysteine-knot family of growth factors that assume stable dimeric structures. beta-NGF is a potent neurotrophic factor that signals through its receptor beta-NGFR, and plays a crucial role in the development and preservation of the sensory and sympathetic nervous systems. beta-NGF also acts as a growth and differentiation factor for B lymphocytes and enhances B-cell survival. The functional form of human beta-NGF is a noncovalently disulfide-linked homodimer, of two 13.5 kDa polypeptide monomers (240 total amino acid residues). The three disulfide bonds are required for biological activity.

NCBI 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 gene's expression is associated with allergic rhinitis.

Uniprot Description

NGF: 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. Homodimer. Belongs to the NGF-beta family.

Product Notes

The beta-NGF ngf (Catalog #AAA695936) is an Active Protein produced from E Coli and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Human beta-NGF reacts with Species Reactivity: Human Cross Reactivity: Chicken, Hamster, Mouse, Rat and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. The amino acid sequence is listed below: SSSHPIFHR GEFSVCDSV SVWVGDKTT ATDIKGKEV MVLGEVNIN NSVFKQYFF ETKCRDPNP VDSGCRGID SKHWNSYCT TTHTFVKAL TMDGKQAAW RFIRIDTAC VCVLSRKAV RRA. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "beta-NGF, Active Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
