Anti-Pro-nerve growth factor (proNGF) Antibody (BS312)
Our Anti-Pro-nerve growth factor (proNGF) mouse monoclonal primary antibody detects human Pro-nerve growth factor (proNGF), and is IgG. It is validated for use in FC, ICC, WB.
Western blot analysis of proNGF expression in DU145 and PC3 prostate cancer cell lysates. Monoclonal proNGF antibody M-1738-100 detects monomeric, non-glycosylated proNGF protein (20 ng, E.coli derived) at 25 kDa (Sample 1). PC3 (Sample 2, 100 µg) and DU145 (Sample 3, 100 µg) cell lysates show several proNGF isoforms (32 kDa, ~40 kDa, ~60 kDa, and higher molecular weight bands) as previously described, which most likely relates to glycosylated forms of full-length proNGF (Reinshagen et al., 2000; Lobos et al., 2005; Pedraza et al., 2005; Pundavela et al., 2014). Specificity of these bands is shown by pre-incubation with the immunizing peptide (5x mass of primary antibody), and a secondary antibody only control blot. Western Blotting Method: SDS-PAGE: denaturing and reducing, 4-20% Bis-Tris gel; Semi-Dry Transfer: Tris-Glycine (Towbin's) buffer with 20% methanol; Membrane: Nitrocellulose (0.45 µm); Blocking: 5% skim milk in TBST, 1 hour at RT; Primary antibody: 2 µg/mL, overnight at 4°C; Secondary antibody: anti-mouse-HRP (1/6000), 1 hour at RT; Detection: Chemiluminiscence.

Product Details
Pro-nerve growth factor (proNGF)
Nerve growth factor (NGF) is synthesized as a precursor (proNGF) which may be released and have physiological functions to cause cell death. It binds neurotrophin receptor p75 and sortilin and may also be important for the development of nervous system. proNGF is synthesized in target tissues and glia, transported retrogradely and may be released.

Mouse
A synthetic peptide (C-HTIPQAHWTKLQ, aa: 30-41) of human proNGF protein has been used as the immunogen. The sequence is located on the pro-domain of the proNGF full-length protein and is 80% homologous to mouse and rat proNGF.

Spin vial briefly before opening. Reconstitute in 100 µL sterile-filtered, ultrapure water. Centrifuge to remove any insoluble material. Final buffer contains no preservatives. Store lyophilized antibody at 2-8°C. After reconstitution divide into aliquots and store at -20°C for a higher stability. Antibody contains no preservatives. Store at 2-8°C with an appropriate antibacterial agent. Use sterile methods. Highest purity Glycerol (1:1) may be added for an additional stability when stored at refrigerated or freezing temperatures. Avoid repetitive freeze/thaw cycles.
