Synthetic peptide directed towards the middle region of human RTN4
Application
Anti-RTN4 (AB1) antibody produced in rabbit is suitable for western blotting at a concentration of 1μg/mLl.
Biochem/physiol Actions
RTN4 (reticulon 4) gene is a member of reticulon encoding genes family. It is expressed in oligodendrocytes and predominantly associates with the endoplasmic reticulum. It is a component of CNS white matter that inhibits the axonal regeneration and induces collapse in dorsal root ganglion growth cones. Beta-secretase beta-site APP cleaving enzyme 1 (BACE1), is a membrane-bound aspartyl protease that plays a pivotal role in the generation of amyloid beta-protein (Abeta). RTN4 interacts with BACE1 and blocks its activity.

Adult mammalian axon regeneration is generally successful in the peripheral nervous system (PNS) but is dismally poor in the central nervous system (CNS). However, many classes of CNS axons can extend for long distances in peripheral nerve grafts. A comparison
