Active Recombinant Mouse Cntf Protein (197 aa)

• Cat.No.: Cntf-434C
• Product Overview: Recombinant Mouse CNTF produced in E. coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain of 197 amino acids and a molecular mass of 22.6 kDa. It has been purified by chromatographic techniques.

Specification

• Description: Ciliary Neurotrophic Factor (CNTF) is a polypeptide hormone which acts within the nervous system where it promotes neurotransmitter synthesis and neurite outgrowth in certain neuronal populations. CNTF is a potent survival factor for neurons and oligodendrocytes and may play a role in reducing tissue damage during increased inflammation. A mutation in this gene, which results in aberrant splicing, leads to ciliary neurotrophic factor deficiency, however this phenotype is not causally related to neurologic disease.
