Neuregulin 1 (NRG1) was originally identified as a 44kD glycoprotein that interacts with the NEU/ERBB2 receptor tyrosine kinase to increase its phosphorylation on tyrosine residues.
It is known that an extraordinary variety of different isoforms are produced from the NRG1 gene by alternative splicing.
These isoforms include heregulins (HRGs), glial growth factors (GGFs) and sensory and motor neuron-derived factor (SMDF).
They are tissue-specifically expressed and differ significantly in their structure.
The HRG isoforms all contain immunoglobulin (Ig) and epidermal growth factor-like (EGF-like) domains.
GGF and GGF2 isoforms contain a kringle-like sequence plus Ig and EGF-like domains; and the SMDF isoform shares only the EGF-like domain with other isoforms.
The receptors for all NRG1 isoforms are the ERBB family of tyrosine kinase transmembrane receptors.
Through interaction with ERBB receptors, NRG1 isoforms induce the growth and differentiation of epithelial, neuronal, glial, and other types of cells.
Applications:Suitable for use in ELISA, Western Blot, Immunohistochemistry and Neutralization.
Other applications not tested.
Recommended Dilutions:ELISA (Sandwich): 0.5-2ug/ml detects human Heregulin beta using 100ul/well antibody solution.
The detection limit is at least 0.2-0.4ng/well for recombinant human Heregulin beta-1Western Blot: 0.1-0.2ug/ml.
The detection limit for recombinant human Heregulin beta1 is 1.5-3ng/lane, under either reducing or non-reducing conditions
Immunohistochemistry (FFPE): 0.0625-0.125mg/ml with an overnight incubation at 4°C stains formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded sections of human normal breast.
Heat induced antigen retrieval with a pH 6.0 sodium citrate buffer is recommended.
Neutralization: 0.7-1.1ug/ml yields one-half maximal inhibition of the biological activity of human Heregulin beta1 (1ng/ml)
