Summary for Simple Plex Control for Human beta-NGF
INTENDED USE AND DESCRIPTION: For use a quantitative control for the determination of human beta-NGF concentrations in biological fluids. Controls are supplied lyophilized. Please refer to the lot specific certificate of analysis and Simple Plex Lyophilized Quality Control product insert for additional information.
Nerve growth factor (NGF) was initially isolated in the mouse submandibular gland over three decades ago as a 7S complex composed of three non- covalently linked subunits, alpha, beta, and gamma. It is now known that both the alpha and gamma subunits of NGF are members of the kallikrein family of serine proteases, while the beta subunit, called beta-NGF or 2.5S NGF, exhibits all the biological activities ascribed to NGF. The human protein shares approximately 90% identity at the amino acid level with both mouse and rat beta-NGF.
