Pleiotrophin(PTN) also known as heparin-binding brain mitogen(HBBM) or heparin-binding growth factor 8(HBGF-8) or neurite growth-promoting factor 1(NEGF1) or heparin affinity regulatory peptide(HARP) or heparin binding growth associated molecule(HB-GAM) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the PTN gene. PTN is the first member of a family of developmentally regulated cytokines. The PTN gene is mapped to 7q33-q34. A mutant PTN that contained only the first N-terminal 40 amino acids was a dominant negative. Pleiotrophin is expressed in the central and peripheral nervous system and also in several non-neural tissues, notably lung, kidney, gut and bone. Pleiotrophin binds to cell-surface nucleolin as a low affinity receptor. This binding can inhibit HIV infection.
The stated application concentrations are suggested starting amounts. Titration of the Pleiotrophin antibody may be required due to differences in protocols and secondary/substrate sensitivity.
An amino acid sequence from the C-terminus of human Pleiotrophin (QAESKKKKKEGKKQEKMLD) was used as the immunogen for this Pleiotrophin antibody (100% homologous in human, mouse and rat).
After reconstitution, the Pleiotrophin antibody can be stored for up to one month at 4oC. For long-term, aliquot and store at -20oC. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
