Pleiotrophin/PTN Recombinant Protein | PTN recombinant protein
Recombinant Mouse Pleiotrophin/PTN Protein (C-His)
Background: Pleiotrophin (PTN) is an secreted, strongly heparinbinding,developmentally regulated cytokine. PTN and midkine share50% amino acid (aa) sequence identity, share some functions, and constitute a family. PTN is a highly conserved protein? human, mouse, rat, canine, porcine, equine and bovine PTN share 98% aa sequence identity orgreater. During development, PTN is involved in development of brain, bone, and organs undergoing branching morphogenesis. PTN causes PTPRB dimerization and inactivates its phosphatase activity, which allows increased tyrosine phosphorylation of its substrates. Increased expression of PTN is correlated withneuronal development or stresses such as brain ischemia and Parkinson's disease.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
Actual Protein Molecular Mass: 18kDa
Uniprot Description
Secreted growth factor that induces neurite outgrowth and which is mitogenic for fibroblasts, epithelial, and endothelial cells. Binds anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) which induces MAPK pathway activation, an important step in the anti-apoptotic signaling of PTN and regulation of cell proliferation. Binds to cell-surface target proteins via their chondroitin sulfate groups. Down-regulates PTPRZ1 activity.

Product Notes
The PTN ptn (Catalog #AAA2557457) is a Recombinant Protein produced from Human Cells and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The amino acid sequence is listed below: Gly33-Asp1 68. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Pleiotrophin/PTN, 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
