Neurite Outgrowth Pnhibitor Protein A,b,c Antibody – Rabbit Polyclonal

Introduction: Many tissues such as muscle, skin, liver, and peripheral nerve, have remarkable ability to repair and regrowafter injury. However, the CNS (brain and spinal cord) is limited in its ability to repair or regrowth causing permanent brain damage or paralyses. Most recently an inhibitory myelin protein, Nogo (Neurite outgrowth), has been cloned and characterized. It may help block the regeneration of the CNS. Nogo is the 4th member of reticulon (Rtn) family. There are three alternative isoforms of Nogo, designated Nogo-A (full length human protein 1192 aa; calculated mol wt 135kD; rat 1163 aa), an intermediate form Nogo-B (373 aa; ~37 K, lacks 186-1004 aa within the extracellular domain), and a shorter form Nogo-C (199 aa; ~25 K, similar to rat vp20 and foocen-s; lacks 186-1004 aa but which has a smaller, alternative N-terminal domain). Nogo-A has a putative extracellular domain of 1024aa, 2-3 TM domains, and a short C-terminus of 43aa. Nogo-A is localized to the CNS-myelin, and is highly expressed in oligodendorcytes but not by Schwann cells. Nogo-B and Nogo-C have been found in several non-neuronal tissues (skeletal muscle, kidney, skin, lung, and spleen), and it may be the 35-kD protein recognized by IN-1 antibody.

Small volumes of anti-Neurite Outgrowth Pnhibitor Protein A,B,C antibody vial(s) may occasionally become entrapped in the seal of the product vial during shipment and storage. If necessary, briefly centrifuge the vial on a tabletop centrifuge to dislodge any liquid in the container`s cap. Certain products may require to ship with dry ice and additional dry ice fee may apply.
