Molecular Weight
Approximately 44.7 kDa, a single non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 394 amino acid residues.
Formulation
Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered concentrated solution in PBS, pH 7.4.
Reconstitution
We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Reconstitute in sterile distilled water or aqueous buffer containing 0.1 % BSA to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL. Stock solutions should be apportioned into working aliquots and stored at ≤ -20 °C. Further dilutions should be made in appropriate buffered solutions.
Background
Neuroserpin encoded by the SERPINI1 gene in humans is a member of the serine proteinase inhibitor (serpin) family. It reacts preferentially with tissue-type plasminogen activator (tPA). Neuroserpin is expressed mainly in the central nervous system (CNS) in response to neuronal depolarization and plays an important role in the development of synaptic plasticity. Mutations in human neuroserpin result in a form of autosomal dominant inherited dementia which is characterized by the presence of intraneuronal inclusion bodies and is known as Familial Encephalopathy with Neuroserpin Inclusion Bodies.
