Recombinant Human/Murine/Rat BDNF (Legacy Tebubio ref. 167450-02). BDNF is a member of the NGF family of neurotrophic growth factors. Like other members of this family, BDNF supports neuron proliferation and survival. BDNF can bind to a low affinity cell surface receptor called LNGFR, which also binds other neurotrophins such as NGF, NT-3 and NT-4. However, BDNF mediates its neurotrophic properties by signaling through a high affinity cell surface receptor called gp145/trkB. BDNF is expressed as the C-terminal portion of a 247 amino acid polypeptide precursor, which also contains a signal sequence of 18 amino acid residues and a propeptide of 110 amino acid residues. Recombinant Human/Murine/Rat BDNF is a 27.0 kDa homodimer of two 120 amino acid subunits linked by strong non-covalent interactions.

Recombinant Human NT-3 (Legacy Tebubio ref. 167450-03). NT-3 is a neurotrophic factor structurally related to beta-NGF, BDNF, and NT-4. These proteins belong to the cysteine-knot family of growth factors that assume stable dimeric structures. NT-3 is expressed by neurons of the central nervous system, and can signal through the trk receptors. NT-3 promotes the growth and survival of nerve and glial cells. The amino acid sequences of human, murine and rat NT-3 are identical. Recombinant Human NT-3 is a noncovalently linked homodimer of two 13.6 kDa polypeptide monomers (240 total amino acid residues).

Recombinant Human NT-4 (Legacy Tebubio ref. 167450-04). NT-4 is a neurotrophic factor structurally related to beta-NGF, BDNF, and NT-3. These proteins belong to the cysteine-knot family of growth factors that assume stable dimeric structures. NT-4 is expressed in the prostate, thymus, placenta, and skeletal muscle. NT-4 can signal through the LNGFR and trkB receptors, and promotes the survival of peripheral sensory sympathetic neurons. Recombinant Human NT-4 is a noncovalently linked homodimer of two 14.0 kDa polypeptide monomers (260 total amino acid residues).

Recombinant Human CDNF (Legacy Tebubio ref. 167450-05). CDNF is a secreted neurotrophic factor that is expressed in brain, neuronal and certain non-neuronal tissues. It has been shown to promote survival, growth and function of dopamine-specific neurons. CDNF and its structural homolog, MANF, each contain an N-terminal saposin-like lipid binding domain, and a carboxyl-terminal domain, which is not homologous to previously characterized protein structures. CDNF and MANF can prevent 6-OHDA-induced degeneration of dopaminergic neurons by triggering survival pathways in a rat experimental model of Parkinson's disease. Recombinant Human CDNF is an 18.5 kDa protein consisting of 162 amino acids, including 8 cysteine residues.
