In the Purity:>90%, by SDS-PAGE visualized with Coomassie® Blue Staining.Description: DCX (doublecortin, N-GST chimera)contains 2 doublecortin domains and belongs to the doublecortin family. It is highly expressed in neuronal cells of fetal brain, but not expressed in other fetal tissues. In the adult, it is highly expressed in the brain frontal lobe, but very low expression in other regions of brain, and not detected in heart, placenta, lung, liver, skeletal muscles, kidney and pancreas. DCX is a microtubule-associated protein required for initial steps of neuronal dispersion and cortex lamination during cerebral cortex development. It may act by competing with the putative neuronal protein kinase DCAMKL1 in binding to a target protein. DCX may in that way participate in a signaling pathway that is crucial for neuronal interaction before and during migration, possibly as part of a calcium ion-dependent signal transduction pathway. It may be part with LIS-1 of a overlapping, but distinct, signaling pathways that promote neuronal migration. Defects in DCX are the cause of lissencephaly X-linked type 1 and subcortical band heterotopia X-linked...

The extracellular region can be proteolytically shed from the cell surface. Mature human NG2 consists of a 2195 amino acid (aa) extracellular domain (ECD), a 21 aa transmembrane segment, and a 77 aa cytoplasmic domain. Within aa 1583-2224, human NG2/CSPG4 shares 83% aa sequence identity with mouse and rat CSPG4. NG2 binds to the extracellular matrix proteins Laminin, Tenascin, and Collagens II, V, and VI as well as to the growth factors FGF-2 and PDGF-AA. NG2 is expressed on glial cell progenitors known as O2A cells or NG2 glia. These cells are neuronally responsive and differentiate primarily into oligodendrocytes but also into astrocytes. NG2 associates with PDGF R alpha and the AMPA R subunit GluR2. It is up-regulated on microglial cells during inflammation and contributes to the induction of inflammatory mediators. Various CSPGs in the brain inhibit neurite outgrowth through interactions with Nogo Receptor/NgR1 and NgR3. This recombinant protein product corresponds to the last 5 CSPG repeats, a region which can independently inhibit neurite outgrowth. NG2 is also expressed on vascular mural cells and capillaries. It promotes vascular endothelial cell (EC) migration and angiogenesis through interactions with Galectin-3 and Integrin alpha 3 beta 1 on EC, Plasminogen, and Angiostatin. NG2 is also expressed on a variety of tumors where it contributes to tumor cell adhesion, motility, and invasion... Read More |
