Catalogue No.:	PE-019-100
Batch No.:	See product label
Unit size:	100 µg
Other Names:	mouse NGF, beta NGF
Accession:	NGF_MOUSE
Description:	Mouse NGF (2.5S) was isolated from mouse submaxillary glands by method of Mobley et al (1976) and is a form of beta-NGF that has identical biological properties. NGF is known to regulate the survival and development of certain sympathetic and sensory neurons. It is a dimer with 2 identical polypeptide chains and dimeric molecular weight of approximately 26,500 Da. Isolation and purification of NGF from mouse submaxillary glands yields preparations of NGF (2.5S) with identical biological activity but with cleavages at the amino terminus (with the loss of 8 amino acids) and/or at the carboxy-terminus (with the loss of arginine). These preparations are named 2.5 NGF (see reference below).
Produced in:	Isolated from mouse submaxillary glands
MW:	The homodimer has a molecular weight of ~26KDa and the monomer ~13KDa as confirmed by SDS PAGE.
Purity:	Greater than 90% (as determined by SDS electrophoresis)
Biol. activity:	Tested by stimulation of 8 day old chick embryo dorsal root ganglia.
Form:	Lyophilised from 0.1M acetic acid under dry N2 with vacuum. Appears as near-white powder. Solution sterile filtered prior to drying.
Reconstitution:	Reconstitute with the addition of 100 µl sterile water or phosphate buffered saline and aliquot.
Storage:	Short term: -20ºC. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
Expiry Date:	12 months upon purchase
