Name Neudesin
Description Not Available
Synonyms
  1. Cell immortalization-related protein 2
  2. Neuron-derived neurotrophic factor
  3. SPUF protein
  4. Secreted protein of unknown function
Gene Name NENF
Protein Type Metal Binding
Biological Properties
General Function Involved in heme binding
Specific Function Displays neurotrophic activity and activates phosphorylation of MAPK1/ERK2, MAPK3/ERK1 and AKT1/AKT in primary cultured neurons. Does not have mitogenic activity in primary cultured astrocytes. May play a role on neuronal differentiation and may have a transient effect on neural cell proliferation in neural precursor cells. Neurotrophic activity is enhanced by binding to heme
