Description

A homodimeric protein consisting of two 134 amino acid non-glycosylated polypeptide chains corresponding to GDNF Source: E. coli

Uniprot ID: P39905

Amino Acid Sequence: SPDKQMAVLP RRERNRQAAA ANPENSRGKG RRGQRGKNRG CVLTAIHLNV TDLGLGYETK EELIFRYCSG SCDAAETTYD KILKNLSRNR RLVSDKVGQA CCRPIAFDDD LSFLDDNLVY HILRKHSAKR CGCI

This lyophilized preparation is stable for 12 months from date of receipt at -20 to -70 degrees C, preferably desiccated. Upon reconstitution, the preparation can be stored for 1 month at 2-8 degrees C under sterile conditions, and for 3 months at -20 degrees C to -70 degrees C. Use a manual defrost freezer and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Stock solutions should be aliquoted and stored at < -20 degrees C. Further dilutions should be made in appropriate buffered solutions

Purity

> 97 % pure by SDS-PAGE and HPLC

Endotoxin Level

Less than 0.1 EU/ug of GDNF as determined by LAL method.

Predicted Molecular Mass

30.1 kDa.
Disclaimer note: The observed molecular weight of the protein may vary from the listed predicted molecular weight due to post translational modifications, post translation cleavages, relative charges, and other experimental factors.

Activity

Fully biologically active when compared to standard. The ED50 as determined by a cell proliferation assay using rat C6 cells is less than 0.1 ng/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of > 5.0 x 10^7 IU/mg.

Background: GDNF

Glial cell-derived neurotrophic factor is a neurotrophic factor that enhances survival and morphological differentiation of dopaminergic neurons and increases their high-affinity dopamine uptake. It is a founding member of the GDNF family of ligands (GFL) and has been shown to interact with GFRA2 and GDNF family receptor alpha. GDNF (monomer) contains seven conserved cysteine residues, one of which (Cys 101) is used for inter-chain disulfide bridging and the others are involved in intramolecular ring formation known as the cysteine knot configuration. Rat and human mature GDNF shows 93 % sequence identity and have species cross-reactivity.
