Introduction
Neuritin (NRN1) is a neurotrophic factor, which is expressed in response to induction of neuronal activity by NGF, BDNF, NT3 and other neural stimulators. NRN1 is expressed principally in postmitotic-differentiating neurons of the developing nervous system and in neuronal structures related to synaptic plasticity in the ***** nervous system. NRN1 functions as a molecular mediator of neurite outgrowth, neuronal survival, and synaptic maturation.
Description
Neuritin-1 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain (Ala28-Gly116) containing 99 amino acids including a 10 aa His tag at N-terminus. The total calculated molecular mass is 11.02kDa.
Source
Escherichia Coli.
Physical Appearance
Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
Formulation
NRN1 was filtered (0.4 µm) and lyophilized in 20mM Tris buffer, 50mM NaCl, pH 8.0, 1% (w/v) Sucrose and 4% (w/v) Mannitol.
Solubility
It is recommended to add 200µl of deionized water to prepare a working stock solution of approximately 0.5 mg/ml and let the lyophilized pellet dissolve completely. NRN1 is not sterile! Please filter the product by an appropriate sterile filter before using it in the cell culture.
Stability
Store lyophilized protein at -20°C. Aliquot the product after reconstitution to avoid repeated freezing/thawing cycles. Reconstituted protein can be stored at 4°C for a limited period of time.
