Mouse proNGF Rapid ELISA Assay
Product Specifications
Background
Nerve growth factor (NGF) is synthesized as a precursor (proNGF) which may be released and have physiological functions to cause cell death. It binds neurotrophin receptor p75 and sortilin and may also be important for the development of nervous system. proNGF is synthesized in target tissues and glia, transported retrogradely and may be released.
Short Description
The Biosensis Mouse and Rat proNGF Rapid enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) Kit is a sandwich ELISA that allows the quantification of rodent full-length proNGF protein in less than 4 hours in cell culture supernatants and cell lysates.
Synonyms
Pro-beta nerve growth factor; proNGF; NGF
UniProt
P01139
Reactivity
Mouse, Rat
Immunogen
Recombinant mouse, wild-type proNGF protein, made in E.coli
Target
Nerve growth factor, pro- (proNGF)
Applications
ELISA
Sample Type
Cell Lysates, Culture Supernatant, Tissue Homogenates
Precautions
For research use only.
Shipping Conditions
Shipped on ice packs
Storage Conditions
Store at 2-8°C.
Specificity
Mouse proNGF. Expected to detect rat proNGF due to high degree of sequence homology. Detects human proNGF (about 20% reactivity) . Does not cross-react with proBDNF and mature NGF. Mature NGF spiked into brain homogenate does not interfere with proNGF quantification.
Method
Colorimetric
Immunogen Species
Mouse
