High impact information on NEGR1

  • Characterization of a novel rat brain glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored protein (Kilon), a member of the IgLON cell adhesion molecule family [1].
  • Kilon immunostaining was observed in the cerebral cortex and hippocampus, in which the strongly stained puncta were observed on dendrites and soma of pyramidal neurons [1].
  • The expression levels of individual IgLONs were correlated, the most significant finding being a positive correlation between LSAMP and NEGR1 [2].
  • The family consists of LAMP, OBCAM, neurotrimin/CEPU-1 and neurotractin/kilon [3].
  • This paper forms part of a Doctorate Thesis, currently being completed at the Allergy and Immunology Section of the Ntra [4].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of NEGR1

  • Kilon-specific monoclonal antibodies were produced, and Western blotting analysis showed that expression of Kilon is restricted to brain, and Kilon has an apparent molecular mass of 46 kDa in SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in its expressed form [1].
