| Full Name | ciliary neurotrophic factor receptor |
| Introduction | The high-affinity CNTF receptor complex, which mediates the biological action of CNTF, contains three proteins: the ligand-binding alpha subunit, and the two signal-transducing proteins LIF R beta and gp130. Whereas LIF R beta and gp130 are widely expressed in many cell types, the expression of CNTF R alpha is restricted to the central and peripheral nervous systems. cDNAs encoding human and rat CNTF R alpha share 94% amino acid (aa) sequence identity. Human CNTF R alpha cDNA encodes a 372 aa precursor protein with a 22 aa residue signal peptide and four potential glycoslyation sites. CNTF R alpha differs from other cytokine receptors in that it lacks transmembrane and cytoplasmic domains and is anchored to cell membranes by a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) linkage. |

| Usage | |
|---|---|
| Application | WB |
| Dilutions | Western Blot (0.1 µg/mL); Neutralization (10-20 µg/mL) |
| Reactivity | Human |
| Specificity | Detects human CNTF R alpha in direct ELISAs and Western Blots. In Western Blots, greater than 50% cross-reactivity with recombinant rat CNTF sR alpha is observed and less than 5% cross-reactivity with recombinant human (rh) IL-2 sR gamma and rhIL-6 sR is observed. |
