Recombinant Human Persephin
Induced proliferation of TT cells assay for Human Persephin. Cell proliferation was measured to calculate the ED50, which is as expected less than 20 ng/ml.
Non-reducing (-) and reducing (+) conditions in a 4 - 20% Tris-Glycine gel stained with Coomassie Blue. 1 μg of protein was loaded in each lane. Human Persephin has a predicted Mw of 20.8 kDa (each monomer is 10.4 kDa).

Persephin is a neurotrophic factor of the glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) family. Persephin promotes survival and growth of dopaminergic and motor neurons, but not peripheral neurons. Persephin is a ligand for the RET receptor tyrosine kinase.Activity Assay
Human Persephin is fully biologically active when compared to standard. The activity is determined by the ability to induce TT cells proliferation and it is typically less than 20 ng/ml. This corresponds to an expected specific activity of 4.0 x 104 units/mg.AA Sequence
