| Formulation |
CNTFR protein solution (1mg/ml) containing 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 8.0) and 10% glycerol. |
| Purity |
Greater than 85.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE. |
| Description |
CNTFR Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 341 amino acids (23-342 a.a) and having a molecular mass of 38.1kDa. CNTFR is fused to a 21 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. |
| Protein Background |
Ciliary Neurotrophic Factor Receptor, also known as CNTFR is a member of the type I cytokine receptor family. CNTFR binds to CNTF. The alpha subunit provides the receptor specificity. Sole nucleotide polymorphisms in CNTFR has been associated with variations in muscle strength, in addition to early onset of eating disorders. |
| Expression host |
Escherichia Coli. |
| Synonyms |
Ciliary Neurotrophic Factor Receptor, CNTF Receptor Subunit Alpha, CNTFR-Alpha, Ciliary Neurotrophic Factor Receptor Subunit Alpha, Ciliary neurotrophic factor receptor subunit alpha, CNTF receptor subunit alpha, CNTFR-alpha. |
| Reagent Appearance |
Sterile Filtered colorless clear solution. |
| Stability |
Store at 4°C if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks. Store, frozen at -20°C for longer periods of time. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles. |
