NT-3/Neurotrophin-3 Active Protein | NT-3 active protein
Recombinant Human NT-3/Neurotrophin-3 Protein
After reconstitution, the protein solution is stable at -20 degree C for 3 months, at 2-8 degree C for up to 1 week.
Background: Neurotrophin-3 (NT-3) is a member of the NGF family of neurotrophic factors and is structurally related to beta -NGF, BDNF and NT-4. The NT3 cDNA encodes a 257 amino acid residue precursor protein with a signal peptideand a proprotein that are cleaved to yield the 119 amino acid residue mature NT3.The amino acid sequencesof mature human, murine and rat NT-3 are identical. NT-3 selectively promotes the differentiation and survivalof specific neuronal subpopulations in both the central as well as the peripheral nervous systems.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the neurotrophin family, that controls survival and differentiation of mammalian neurons. This protein is closely related to both nerve growth factor and brain-derived neurotrophic factor. It may be involved in the maintenance of the adult nervous system, and may affect development of neurons in the embryo when it is expressed in human placenta. NTF3-deficient mice generated by gene targeting display severe movement defects of the limbs. The mature peptide of this protein is identical in all mammals examined including human, pig, rat and mouse. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Uniprot Description
NT-3: Seems to promote the survival of visceral and proprioceptive sensory neurons. Belongs to the NGF-beta family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.
