Product Specific Information

AA Sequence of recombinant protein:
AFTEHSPLTP HRRDLCSRSI WLARKIRSDL TALTQSYVKH QGLNKNINLD SADGMPVAST DQWSQLTQAQ RLQQNLQAYR TFHVLLARLL QDQQVHFTPT QGDFHQAIHT LLLQVAAFAY QIQQLMILLQ YKIPRNQADG MPINVGDGGL FQKKLWGLKV LQQLSQWTVR SIHDLRFISS HQTGIPARGS HYIANNKKM.

Preparation:
Produced from sera of rabbits immunized with highly pure Recombinant Human CNTF. Anti-Human CNTF-specific antibody was purified by affinity chromatography and then biotinylated.

Sandwich ELISA:
To detect Human CNTF by sandwich ELISA (using 100 µL/well antibody solution), a concentration of 0.25–1.0 µg/mL of this antibody is required. This biotinylated polyclonal antibody, in conjunction with PeproTech Polyclonal Anti-Human CNTF (500-P140) as a capture antibody, allows the detection of at least 0.2–0.4 ng/well of Recombinant Human CNTF.

Western Blot:
To detect hCNTF by Western Blot analysis, this antibody can be used at a concentration of 0.1–0.2 µg/mL. Used in conjunction with compatible secondary reagents, the detection limit for Recombinant hCNTF is 1.5–3.0 ng/lane, under either reducing or non-reducing conditions.

Package Information:
500-P140BT-1MG will be provided as 2 × 500 µg.

Target Information

The protein encoded by this gene is a polypeptide hormone whose actions appear to be restricted to the nervous system, where it promotes neurotransmitter synthesis and neurite outgrowth in certain neuronal populations. It is a potent survival factor for neurons and oligodendrocytes and may be relevant in reducing tissue destruction during inflammatory attacks. A mutation in this gene leads to ciliary neurotrophic factor deficiency. A read-through transcript variant composed of ZFP91 and CNTF sequences has been identified but is thought to be non-coding. Similar read-through transcription has also been observed in mouse.
