VGF blocking peptide
VGF Peptide
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene is specifically expressed in a subpopulation of neuroendocrine cells, and is upregulated by nerve growth factor. The structural organization of this gene is similar to that of the rat gene, and both the translated and the untranslated regions show a high degree of sequence similarity to the rat gene. The encoded secretory protein also shares similarities with the secretogranin/chromogranin family, however, its exact function is not known. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Product Notes
The VGF vgf (Catalog #AAA151855) is a Blocking Peptide and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. AAA Biotech's VGF can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Blocking (BL). VGF peptide is used for blocking the activity of VGF antibody. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the VGF vgf for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "VGF, Blocking Peptide" 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.Precautions
