Mouse SNCG Recombinant Protein (RPPB4742)

g-synuclein(Originally known as a breast cancer specific gene product, BCSG1) is an acidic neuronal protein of 127 amino acids. Gamma-Synuclein is a member of the Synuclein protein family, which is believed to be involved in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases. High levels of Gamma-Synuclein have been found in advanced breast carcinomas suggesting a correlation between overexpression of SNCG and breast tumor development. Synuclein-Gamma is found mostly in the peripheral nervous system (in primary sensory neurons, sympathetic neurons, and motor neurons) and retina. SNCG is also identified in the brain, ovarian tumors, and in the olfactory epithelium. SNCG expression in breast tumors is a marker for tumor progression. A modification in the expression of gamma-synuclein has been detected in the retina of Alzheimer's patients.

SNCG Mouse Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 146 amino acids (1-123 a.a) and having a molecular mass of 15.5kDa.SNCG is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
