Target Details

Target: Cardiotrophin 2 (CTF2)

Alternative Name: Neuropoietin

Background: Neuropoietin is a newly identified member of the IL6 cytokine family. Members of this family, including IL6, IL11, oncostatin M, leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF), cardiotrophin-1 (CT-1), cardiotrophin-like cytokine, and CNTF, display a four-helix bundle structure, and signal through gp130-containing receptor complexes. Neuropoietin, which is predominantly expressed in neuroepithelia during embryonic life, acts through a receptor complex comprising CNTF receptor-a component, gp 130, and LIF receptor. Like CNTF, it promotes the survival of embryonic motor neurons and could increase the proliferation of neural precursor cells in the presence of EGF and FGF2.
Alternative Names: NPO protein, NP protein

Molecular Weight: 19.8 kDa
