Recombinant Rat GDNF Protein Summary

Product Specifications

Purity
>97%, by SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions and visualized by silver stain.
Endotoxin Level
<0.01 EU per 1 μg of the protein by the LAL method.
Activity
Measured in a cell proliferation assay using SH‑SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells. The ED50 for this effect is 2-12 ng/mL in the presence of Recombinant Rat GFR alpha ‑1/GDNF R alpha -1 Fc Chimera (Catalog # 560-GR). Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. Immobilized Recombinant Rat GFR alpha ‑1/GDNF R alpha ‑1 Fc Chimera (Catalog # 560-GR) at 1 µg/mL binds Recombinant Rat GDNF with an apparent Kd <4 nM.

Carrier Free

What does CF mean?

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.

What formulation is right for me?

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.

512-GF

Formulation Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution in PBS with BSA as a carrier protein.

Background: GDNF

Glial Cell Line-derived Neurotrophic Factor (GDNF) is a discovered neurotrophic factor that has been shown to promote the survival of various neuronal subpopulations in both the central as well as the peripheral nervous systems at different stages of their development. Neuronal subpopulations that have been shown to be affected by GDNF include motoneurons, midbrain dopaminergic neurons, Purkinje cells and sympathetic neurons.

Native GDNF, a disulfide-linked homodimeric glycoprotein, is a novel member of the TGF-beta  superfamily. Rat GDNF cDNA encodes a 211 amino acid residue prepropeptide that is processed to yield a dimeric protein composed of two 134 amino acid residue subunits. The GDNF sequence contains two potential glycosylation sites and insect cell-expressed recombinant rat GDNF proteins are glycosylated. Mature rat and human GDNF exhibit approximately 93% amino acid sequence identity and show considerable species cross-reactivity. Cells known to express GDNF include Sertoli cells, type 1 astrocytes, Schwann cells, neurons, pinealocytes and skeletal muscle cells.
