Biochem/physiol Actions

The NGF receptor also named low-affinity NGF receptor (LNGFR), a potent NGF antagonist, is a 75 kDa, type I transmembrane protein consisting of an extracellular domain, which contains four cysteine-rich domains responsible for ligand binding. The cytoplasmic region of the receptor contains a subtype 2 death domain. Nerve Growth Factor Receptor (NGF R), binds NGF and other neurotrophins including BDNF, NT-3, and NT-4 with similar affinity. NGF-R is necessary for regulating neuronal growth, cell migration, gene expression, differentiation, and cell death during development of the central and peripheral nervous system.

Physical form

Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution in phosphate buffered saline.

Preparation Note

Nerve growth factor receptor/Fc chimera mouse is a chimeric protein expressed in a mouse myeloma cell line, NSO. A DNA sequence encoding the signal peptide from human CD33 joined with the extracellular domain of mouse nerve growth factor receptor (NGF R)1 is fused to the Fc region of human IgG1 via a peptide linker. Mature recombinant mouse NGF R /Fc is a disulfide linked homodimeric protein. Based on N-terminal amino acid sequencing, the mature protein starts at Gly 17. The recombinant mouse NGF R/Fc monomer has a calculated molecular mass 50.4 kDa. As a result of glycosylation, recombinant mouse NGF receptor/Fc migrates with an apparent molecular mass of 75-100 kDa in SDS-PAGE.

Analysis Note

The biological activity is measured by its ability to inhibit recombinant mouse β-NGF-induced proliferation of TF-1 cells.

A random-primed cDNA expression library constructed from the mRNA of neuroblastoma cells (NG108) was used to clone a specific rabies virus (RV) receptor. A soluble form of the RV glycoprotein (Gs) was utilized as a ligand to detect positive cells.
