| Sequence: | Cys32-His429 |
| Accession: | P15209 |
| Storage: | Generally, lyophilized proteins are stable for up to 12 months when stored at -20 to -80°C. Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 4-8°C for 2-7 days. Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at < -20°C for 3 months. |
| Shipping: | This product is provided as lyophilized powder which is shipped with ice packs. |
| Formulation: | Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4. Normally 5 % - 8 % trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween80 are added as protectants before lyophilization. Please refer to the specific buffer information in the printed manual. |
| Reconstitution: | Please refer to the printed manual for detailed information. |
| Background: | The TRK Family of Tyrosine Kinase Receptor consists of 3 members: TrkA, TrkB and TrkC. The three TRK family proteins have different ligand specificities. They connect to different neurotrophins, including NGF, BDNF, NT-3NT-4/5. TRKA binds NGF, TRKB binds BDNF and NT-3, TRKC binds NT-4/5. At the protein sequence level, human and rat TRKB have greater than 90% sequence identity and the proteins exbihit cross-species activity. TRKB is primarily expressed in the nervous system and it also expression in a wide variety of tissues with low levels. |
