Ciliary Neurotrophic Factor Receptor (CNTFR) is a member of the type I cytokine receptor family and binds to CNTF. The alpha subunit provides the receptor specificity. Sole nucleotide polymorphisms in CNTFR has been associated with variations in muscle strength, in addition to early onset of eating disorders.
CTNFR produced in Sf9 Baculovirus cells is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 329 amino acids (23-342a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 36.9kDa. (Molecular size on SDS-PAGE will appear at approximately 40-57kDa).CTNFR is expressed with a 9 amino acid His tag at C-Terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
| UniProt Protein Function: | CNTFR: Binds to CNTF. The alpha subunit provides the receptor specificity. Belongs to the type I cytokine receptor family. Type 3 subfamily. |

| NCBI Summary: | This gene encodes a member of the type 1 cytokine receptor family. The encoded protein is the ligand-specific component of a tripartite receptor for ciliary neurotrophic factor, which plays a critical role in neuronal cell survival, differentiation and gene expression. Binding of ciliary neurotrophic factor to the encoded protein recruits the transmembrane components of the receptor, gp130 and leukemia inhibitory factor receptor, facilitating signal transduction. Single nucleotide polymorphisms in this gene may be associated with variations in muscle strength, as well as early onset of eating disorders. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, May 2011] |
