Other Names | Neurotrophin-4, NT-4, Neurotrophin-5, NT-5, Neutrophic factor 4, NTF4, NTF5 |
Target/Specificity | The synthetic peptide sequence used to generate the antibody AP7765b was selected from the C-term region of human NTF5. A 10 to 100 fold molar excess to antibody is recommended. Precise conditions should be optimized for a particular assay. |
Format | Peptides are lyophilized in a solid powder format. Peptides can be reconstituted in solution using the appropriate buffer as needed. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 6 months. For long term storage store at -20°C. |
Precautions | This product is for research use only. Not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
Name | NTF4 |

Background
NTF5 is a member of a family of neurotrophic factors, neurotrophins, that control survival and differentiation of mammalian neurons. While knock-outs of other neurotrophins including nerve growth factor, brain-derived neurotrophic factor, and neurotrophin 3 prove lethal during early postnatal development, NTF5-deficient mice only show minor cellular deficits and develop normally to adulthood.
