Gene Information

human ... NGFR(4804)

General description

The low affinity NGFR (Nerve growth factor receptor) is a 75kDa membrane-spanning glycoprotein lacking intrinsic tyrosine kinase activity. p75NGFR interacts with TrkA, the high affinity NGF receptor and potentiates TrkA signaling at low NGF concentrations. The p75 receptor binds nerve growth factor, brain-derived neurotrophic factor, neurotrophin-3 and neurotrophin-4 with varying specificities. The p75NGFR plays an important role in neurotrophic factor signaling and has been shown to modulate the susceptibility of selective cellular populations to programmed cell death. It is expressed on many neuronal cells types including many embryonic forms and the receptor can be used to isolate neuronal progenitor cells.

Specificity

Reacts with rat p75 protein.
Specific for the rat low affinity Nerve Growth Factor-Receptor (p75), does not react with human or mouse p75.

Immunogen

Epitope: Extracellular
n-octoglucoside stabilized proteins containing p75 receptor, which were isolated from plasma membranes of PC-12 cells (Chandler et al., 1984).

Application

Anti-Nerve Growth Factor Receptor Antibody, extracellular, clone 192-IgG is an antibody against Nerve Growth Factor Receptor for use in IC, IH, IP, FUNC & WB.

The neurotrophin nerve growth factor (NGF) regulates neuronal growth, differentiation, and survival during development. However, the precursor of NGF, proNGF, is a potent apoptotic ligand for the p75 neurotrophin receptor (p75(NTR))-sortilin complex. The mechanisms that regulate cleavage of proNGF, therefore
