CRMP-1 Recombinant Protein

Source : Escherichia Coli. CRMP1 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 597 amino acids (1-572 a.a) and having a molecular mass of 64.8kDa (Will appear as multiple bands on SDS-PAGE) .CRMP1 is fused to a 25 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. Collapsin response mediator proteins (CRMPs) are cytosolic phosphoproteins involved in neuronal differentiation and axonal guidance. CRMP2 was previously shown to mediate the repulsive effect of Sema3A on axons and to participate in axonal specification. The X-ray crystal structure of murine CRMP1 was determined at 2.1 resolution and demonstrates that CRMP1 is a bilobed 'lung-shaped' protein forming a tetrameric assembly.
