Rabbit polyclonal to Neuregulin-1Heregulin (HRG) or Neu Differentiation Factor (NDF) binds to c-erbB-3 and cerbB-4 receptors on mammary and neuronal cells with low and high affinities, respectively. HRG/NDF exists in several isoforms, which are classified in two groups, a and b, that differ in their EGF-like domain and in receptor binding affinity.

Tested Applications
BlockingWB
For Blocking - Use at 50 μg/ml culture medium. For WB: Use at a concentration of 5-10 μg/ml for 2 hrs at RT. Not suitable for use in IHC. Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user:
Species Reactivity
HumanMouse
Concentration
1mg/ml (Please refer to the vial label for the specific concentration)
Purification
Affinity purified
Target Information
Gene Synonyms
Neuregulin GGF Heregulin 1 Heregulin1 NDF
Target
Neuregulin-1
Tissue Specificity
Reacts weakly with alpha-HRG and strongly with beta-HRG. Does not inhibit the binding of HRG to ErbB receptors but it efficiently blocks the HRG-induced proliferation and differentiation of cultured human mammary cells.
Application
Application
Western blot analysis of Heregulin using
Positive Control
HRGbeta1 recombinant protein, LS174T cells
Application Notes
