Formulation |
LINGO1 protein solution (1mg/ml) containing 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 8.0) and 10% glycerol. |
Purity |
Greater than 90.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE. |
Description |
LINGO1 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 133 amino acids (241-337 a.a) and having a molecular mass of 15.1kDa. LINGO1 is fused to a 36 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. |
Protein Background |
Leucine Rich Repeat And Ig Domain Containing 1, also known as Lingo1 is primarily expressed in neuronal tissue, and most abundantly in the cortex. In addition, Lingo 1 is involved in the inhibition of axon regeneration all the way through a ternary complex formed with NgR1 (ligand-binding subunit) and p75 (signal transducing subunit). The inhibitory action is accomplished through RhoA-GTP upregulation in response to the presence of MOG, MAG or Nogo-66 in the central nervous system. Furthermore, LINGO-1 inhibits oligodendrocyte precursor differentiation as well as myelination, by a mechanism which also involves activation of RhoA, however it appears that it does not require 75 or NgR1. |
Expression host |
