Invitrogen™ NRG1 Monoclonal Antibody (147705)

Mouse Monoclonal Antibody

Brand:  Invitrogen™ MA523776

Product Code. 15593462

Description

This antibody recognizes an epitope found in the EGF-like domain of NRG1- beta 1 (amino acids 179-246). This antibody detects recombinant human SMDF (Sensory and Motor neuron-Derived Factor), but it does not recognize the EGF-like domain of human NRG1-alpha (amino acids 177-241). The epitope is present within amino acids 213-230 of human NRG1-beta 1. This segment is present in all NRG1 beta isoforms, GGF-2 (glial growth factor), and SMDF, but it is absent from NRG1-alpha, NDF43, and NRG1-gamma. Reconstitute at 0.5 mg/mL in sterile PBS.

Neuregulin 1 (NRG1) was originally identified as a 44-kD glycoprotein that interacts with the NEU/ERBB2 receptor tyrosine kinase to increase its phosphorylation on tyrosine residues. It is known that an extraordinary variety of different isoforms are produced from the NRG1 gene by alternative splicing. These isoforms include heregulins (HRGs), glial growth factors (GGFs) and sensory and motor neuron-derived factor (SMDF). They are tissue-specifically expressed and differ significantly in their structure. The HRG isoforms all contain immunoglobulin (Ig) and epidermal growth factor-like (EGF-like) domains. GGF and GGF2 isoforms contain a kringle-like sequence plus Ig and EGF-like domains; and the SMDF isoform shares only the EGF-like domain with other isoforms. The receptors for all NRG1 isoforms are the ERBB family of tyrosine kinase transmembrane receptors. Through interaction with ERBB receptors, NRG1 isoforms induce the growth and differentiation of epithelial, neuronal, glial, and other types of cells.
