Nerve growth factor (NGF) is a small secreted protein that is important for the growth, maintenance, and survival of certain target neurons (nerve cells). NGF consists of three types of subunits, α, β and γ, which specifically interact to form a 7S, 130,000 molecular weight complex. This complex contains two identical 118-amino acid β-chains, which are solely responsible for nerve growth stimulating activity of NGF. NGF is essential for the development and phenotypic maintenance of neurons in the peripheral nervous system (PNS) and for the functional integrity of cholinergic neurons in the central nervous system (CNS).

- Recommended Usage
-
Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by ELISA assay. For ELISA applications, a concentration range of 6 - 10 µg/ml is recommended. It is recommended that the reagent be titrated for optimal performance for each application. Additionally, BioLegend recommends the usage of Tris-Buffered Saline (TBS), pH = 7.2 for all washes and incubations, except substrate buffer. Do not use PBS as results may vary dramatically.
- Application Notes
-
ELISA Capture: The purified JKhNGF-1 antibody is useful as the capture antibody in a sandwich ELISA assay, when used in conjunction with the biotinylated JKhNGF-2 antibody (Cat. No. 509802) as the detecting antibody for detecting human NGF.
