Appearance Lyophilized powder. Formulation Lyophilized after extensive dialysis against 50 mM acetic acid. Endotoxin Level <0.3 EU/μg, determined by LAL method. Reconstitution Reconstitute the lyophilized recombinant Human Neurotrophin-4 (rHuNT-4) to 50 μg/mL using ddH2O or 50 mM acetic acid. Storage & Stability Lyophilized recombinant Human Neurotrophin-4 (rHuNT-4) is stored at -20°C. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 2 weeks or -20°C for longer. It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage. Shipping Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere. Background Neurotrophin-4 (NT-4) is a member of the well-studied family of neurotrophins that regulate the development of neuronal networks by participating in the growth of neuronal processes, synaptic development and plasticity, neuronal survival, differentiation, as well as myelination. Neurotrophin-4 binds with two distinct receptors: TrkB, high affinity receptor and p75 low-affinity neurotrophin receptor (p75NTR)[1]. |
