General description

Neurofascin is a ankyrin binding protein that may be involved in myelination, neurite extension, synaptogenesis, axonal guidance and neuron-glial cell interactions. There are two known isoforms, NF155 and NF186. NF155 is found in oligodendrocytes, and is involved in neurite outgrowth and neuronal adhesion. NF186 is expressed in neurons, and may optimize communication between neurons by anchoring the axon initial segment (AIS).

Immunogen

Recombinant protein corresponding to rat Pan-Neurofascin.

Target description

~185 kDa and ~155 kDa observed. Three isoforms are known to exist at 138 kDa, 134 kDa, and 132 kDa due to alternative splicing. This protein has been observed at ~186 kDa, ~180 kDa, ~166 kDa and ~155 kDa (Kriebel, M., et al. (2012). Int J Biochem Cell Biol. 44(5):694-697.). This protein may undergo post-translational modification.
