NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes an L1 family immunoglobulin cell adhesion molecule with multiple IGcam and fibronectin domains. The protein functions in neurite outgrowth, neurite fasciculation, and organization of the axon initial segment (AIS) and nodes of Ranvier on axons during early development. Both the AIS and nodes of Ranvier contain high densities of voltage-gated Na+ (Nav) channels which are clustered by interactions with cytoskeletal and scaffolding proteins including this protein, gliomedin, ankyrin 3 (ankyrin-G), and betaIV spectrin. This protein links the AIS extracellular matrix to the intracellular cytoskeleton. This gene undergoes extensive alternative splicing, and the full-length nature of some variants has not been determined.[provided by RefSeq, May 2009]
Uniprot Description
neurofascin: Cell adhesion, ankyrin-binding protein which may be involved in neurite extension, axonal guidance, synaptogenesis, myelination and neuron-glial cell interactions. Belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily. L1/neurofascin/NgCAM family. 13 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.
Protein type: Membrane protein, integral; Motility/polarity/chemotaxis
Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 1q32.1
Cellular Component: focal adhesion; integral to membrane; intracellular; myelin sheath; paranode region of axon; plasma membrane
Molecular Function: protein binding; protein domain specific binding
Biological Process: axon guidance; clustering of voltage-gated sodium channels; heterotypic cell-cell adhesion; myelination; paranodal junction assembly; peripheral nervous system development; synapse organization and biogenesis; transmission of nerve impulse

Product Notes
The NFASC nfasc (Catalog #AAA1261174) is a Recombinant Protein produced from E Coli or Yeast or Baculovirus or Mammalian Cell and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The immunogen sequence is 1239-1347aa; Cytoplasmic Domain. The amino acid sequence is listed below: KRSRGGKYPV REKKDVPLGP EDPKEEDGSF DYSDEDNKPL QGSQTSLDGT IKQQESDDSL VDYGEGGEGQ FNEDGSFIGQ YTVKKDKEET EGNESSEATS PVNAIYSLA. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Neurofascin, Recombinant 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.Precautions
