Extra Details:
Source : Escherichia Coli. Ciliary Neurotrophic Factor Recombinant Human produced in E.Coli is a single; non-glycosylated polypeptide chain (aa 1-200) containing a total of 220 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 25kDa. The CNTF protein is fused to a 20 aa His Tag at N-terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. CNTF is a polypeptide hormone whose actions appear to be restricted to the nervous system where it promotes neurotransmitter synthesis and neurite outgrowth in certain neuronal populations. The protein is a potent survival factor for neurons and oligodendrocytes and may be relevant in reducing tissue destruction during inflammatory attacks. A mutation in this gene; which results in aberrant splicing; leads to ciliary neurotrophic factor deficiency; but this phenotype is not causally related to neurologic disease. In addition to the predominant monocistronic transcript originating from this locus; the gene is also co-transcribed with the upstream ZFP91 gene. Co-transcription from the two loci results in a transcript that contains a complete coding region for the zinc finger protein but lacks a complete coding region for ciliary neurotrophic factor.CNTF is a survival factor for various neuronal cell types. Seems to prevent the degeneration of motor axons after axotomy.
