Background: Human NF-M (neurofilament-medium length) is a 145?150 kDa phosphorylated glycoprotein that belongs to the type IV intermediate filament family. It is 915 amino acids in length and contains a 100 amino acid (aa) N-terminal globular region, a 320 aa alpha -helical rod, or central region, and a 500 aa globular tail. The rod region contains a series of heptad repeats that contribute to a coiled-coil interaction with an adjacent NF-M molecule, the first step in intermediate filament oligomerization. The C-terminus shows phosphorylation and O-linked glycosylation. Human NF-M aa 2?358, which includes most of the rod region, shares ~98% aa sequence identity with corresponding region of mouse, rat and canine NF-M.
Sequence: Ser 2-Ser 358
Purity: > 95 % as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE.
Formulation: Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4.
Normally 5 % - 8 % trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween80 are added as protectants before lyophilization.
