Mutations in this gene have been associated with hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy, type 5 (HSAN5), and dysregulation of this gene's expression is associated with allergic rhinitis. Nerve Growth Factor was the 1st protein found from the family of neurotrophic factors that influence the growth and differentiation of sympathetic and sensory neurons. NGF consists of 3 different subunits: alpha, beta, and gamma. The beta subunit is accountable for its growth stimulating activity. The synthesis of NGF in astrocytes is enhanced by a range of cytokines such as IL1, TNF-a, PDGF & TGF-b. |
Synonyms | Beta Polypeptide, NGF, NGFB, HSAN5, Beta-NGF, MGC161426, MGC161428. |
Source | Escherichia Coli. |
Physical Appearance | Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder. |
Formulation | The Recombinant Mouse b-NGF was lyophilized without additives. |
Solubility | It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Murine NGF-beta in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions. |
Stability | Lyophilized Mouse Beta-NGF althoµgh stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution Murine NGF-Beta should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C.Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
