Recombinant Mouse Neuregulin-1/NRG1 Protein, CF Summary
Product Specifications
Ser20-Lys246, with a C-terminal 6-His tag
Analysis
Product Datasheets
Carrier Free
CF stands for Carrier Free (CF). We typically add Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) as a carrier protein to our recombinant proteins. Adding a carrier protein enhances protein stability, increases shelf-life, and allows the recombinant protein to be stored at a more dilute concentration. The carrier free version does not contain BSA.
In general, we advise purchasing the recombinant protein with BSA for use in cell or tissue culture, or as an ELISA standard. In contrast, the carrier free protein is recommended for applications, in which the presence of BSA could interfere.

Background: Neuregulin-1/NRG1
Neuregulin-1 (NRG1) belongs to a family of structurally related glycoproteins encoded by four distinct but related genes, Nrg1, Nrg2, Nrg3, and Nrg4. In humans, Nrg1 encodes multiple soluble or transmembrane proteins through alternative splicing or the use of alternative promoters with each NRG1 isoform exhibiting distinct expression patterns and functions (1). Type I isoforms include Neu Differentiation Factor, Heregulin, and ARIA, and they consist of an N-terminal domain, an Ig-like domain, a linker with a Ser/Thr rich region, an EGF-like domain, a transmembrane segment, and a cytoplasmic domain. Type II isoforms have a larger N-terminal domain and lack the Ser/Thr rich linker, while Type III isoforms lack the Ig-like domain but contain a cysteine rich domain (CRD) and a second transmembrane segment (1-6). The mature mouse NRG1 isoform expressed corresponds to Heregulin-beta 1 with an extracellular domain of 229 amino acids (aa) that shares 92% and 79% sequence identity with human and rat NRG1, respectively. NRG1 regulates multiple nervous system functions including axon guidance, synapse formation and plasticity, glial cell development, and axon myelination (1-3). All NRG1 isoforms share an EGF-like domain that interacts with the ErbB family of tyrosine kinase receptors to induce signaling (1-4). Heregulin-beta 1 has been directly linked to diverse functions including cardiovascular development and protection from ischemic injury (7) to a role in the growth and maintenance of human embryonic stem cells (8). Multiple polymorphisms and aberrant expression of NRG1 isoforms are associated with the development of schizophrenia and several cancers (2, 9, 10). Activation of Heregulin-beta 1 signaling has been shown to promote invasiveness and metastasis of breast cancer cells (11, 12).
