Description: Neuron specific enolase (NSE), also known as ENO2 or gamma-enolase, is a dimeric, Mg2+-dependent enzyme that catalyzes the dehydration of 2-phospho-D glycate (PGA) to phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) in the Purity:>95%, by SDS-PAGE visualized with Coomassie® Blue Staining. Description: Neuron specific enolase (NSE), also known as ENO2 or gamma-enolase, is a dimeric, Mg2+-dependent enzyme that catalyzes the dehydration of 2-phospho-D glycate (PGA) to phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) in the glycolytic pathway and catalyzes the reverse reaction in gluconeogenesis. There are three major isozymes of enolase expressed in selective vertebrate tissues from separate genes: alpha (ENO1), beta (ENO3), and gamma (ENO2). NSE is a highly expressed, specific neuron isozyme making it a useful marker for tumors derived from neuronal cells. Neuron-specific enolase is implicated as a diagnostic and prognostic marker in numerous diseases including early small cell lung cancer, prostate cancer, multiple myeloma, traumatic brain injury, acute spinal cord injury, acute ischemic stroke, and post-concussion symptoms. NSE expression and activity are increased in neuronal and glial activation and injury, risk factors implicated in neurodegenerative disease. Elevation of NSE promotes glycolysis, proliferation, activation and migration through its C-terminus to activate PI3K and MAPK signal transduction pathways while inhibition of enolase has been shown to attenuate inflammatory events. NSE can be regulated through cleavage of the C-termini by cathepsin X or inhibited directly by antibiotic SF2312. Inhibition has been proposed as a therapeutic strategy in cancer...

Description: 100B, previously called S100 beta, belongs to the S100 family within the EF-hand superfamily of Ca2+ binding proteins. S100 proteins contain two EF-hand motifs that differ in affinity, separated by a hingePurity:>95%, by SDS-PAGE visualized with Coomassie® Blue Staining. Description: 100B, previously called S100 beta, belongs to the S100 family within the EF-hand superfamily of Ca2+ binding proteins. S100 proteins contain two EF-hand motifs that differ in affinity, separated by a hinge region with a hydrophobic cleft that is exposed upon Ca2+ binding. S100B is a 91 amino acid (aa) protein, after removal of the initial methionine, and is found as homodimers of 10.4 kDa monomers. Human S100B shares 99%, 98%, 100%, 99% and 97% aa sequence identity with mouse, rat, rabbit, equine and bovine S100B, respectively. Within the S100 family, human S100B shows the highest aa identity (59%) with S100A1. S100B is expressed primarily by astrocytes and oligodendrocytes in the central nervous system, and by Schwann cells in the peripheral nervous system. Ca2+-bound S100B interacts in vitro with at least 20 cytoplasmic proteins, including several structural molecules such as tubulin and GFAP. It can inhibit the phosphorylation of these kinase substrates and others such as tau and neuromodulin. Astrocytes can secrete S100B, which then acts in a cytokine-like manner. Nanomolar concentrations of S100B are secreted constitutively, promote proliferation, and are neurotrophic and anti-apoptotic. Blood levels of S100B reflect extracellular concentrations within the nervous system, and are elevated in Down’s syndrome, Alzheimer’s disease and Tourette’s syndrome, metabolic stress, acute brain injury and brain tumors. Micromolar concentrations of S100B can be destructive and pro-apoptotic; they induce the expression of iNOS, COX-2, IL-1, IL‑6 and TNF-alpha by microglia, astrocytes or neurons. Most extracellular actions of S100B can be mediated by RAGE (receptor for advanced glycation end products), which is also a receptor for other S100 proteins... Read More |
