- Background
-
Glia Maturation Factor beta (GMF-beta) is a 17 kDa brain specific protein that belongs to the ADF/cofilin superfamily. It is a neurotrophin that induces maturation of neurons and glial cells, and. Unlike other neurotrophins, GMF-beta lacks a leader sequence and can be phosphorylated by protein kinase A and protein kinase C suggesting its role in signal transduction. GMF-beta is a prominent mediator of inflammation in the central nervous system and can activate several inflammation-related genes such as tumor necrosis factor-beta and interleukin-1beta. Researchers have shown there are significantly higher levels of GMF-beta protein in all the effected regions of Alzheimer's disease (AD) brains suggesting an important role of GMF-beta in AD pathogenesisRecombinant human Glia Maturation Factor beta (rhGMF-beta) produced in E. coli is a single non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 142 amino acids. rhGMF-beta has a molecular mass of 16.7 kDa analyzed by reducing SDS-PAGE.
