CNTF (Ciliary Neurotrophic Factor)
Description:
CNTF (Ciliary Neurotrophic Factor) is a potent neural factor that was originally characterized as a survivability factor for chick ciliary neurons in vitro. CNTF has also been shown to promote survivability and differentiation of other neuronal cell types. CNTF is a 22.9kD protein containing 200aa.

Applications:
Suitable for use in Western Blot. Other applications not tested.
