A novel rat gene, Rattin, encodes a peptide homologous to Humanin, a secreted peptide that specifically protects against neuronal cell death induced by beta-amyloid peptide or by mutations causing early-onset familial Alzheimer's disease.
Rattin is the prototype of a novel class of peptides, phylogenetically related to Humanin, endowed with protective activity not only against beta-amyloid peptide but also toward excitotoxic neuronal death.
The rat gene, Rattin, encodes a peptide of 38 residues (15 residues longer than Humanin) showing 73% identity in the conserved region to Humanin.
Applications:Suitable for use in Western Blot performed from 100ng of synthetic Rattin peptide and from 50mg of total lysates of 293T cells transfected with plasmids encoding GFP-Rattin.
Other applications not tested.
