Neurogranin (NRGN) is the main postsynaptic protein kinase substrate that binds calmodulin in the absence of calcium. It is suggested that the NRGN is a direct target for thyroid hormone in the human brain, and that the control of expression of this gene could underlay many of the consequences of hypothyroidism on mental states during development as well as in adult subjects. Neurogranin in CSF has been implicated as a possible marker for synaptic degeneration in Alzheimer’s disease.

Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded immunohistochemical staining. For immunohistochemistry, a concentration range of 0.5 - 5.0 µg/ml is suggested. For Western blotting, the suggested use of this reagent is 1.0 - 10.0 µg per ml. It is recommended that the reagent be titrated for optimal performance for each application.

Antigen Details
- Structure
- 78 amino acids with a molecular weight of 7.6 kD.
- Distribution
-
In the cerebral cortex, NRGN is found in the cell bodies of neurons in layers II-VI, and in apical and basal dendrites of pyramidal neurons. It is not found in the dendrites in patients with Alzheimer's disease.
- Function
- Neurogranin is a neuron-specific protein kinase C substrate (post synaptic protein) whose main function is to bind CaM (calmodulin) in the absence of Ca2+. Neurogranin modulates the homeostasis of Ca2+ in neurons and its role has been implicated in learning and memory.
