LINGO, 241-370 aa, Human, His tag, E.coli

Lingo1 also known as Leucine-rich repeat and immunoglobulin-like domain-containing nogo receptor-interacting protein1. LINGO-1 is primarily expressed in neuronal tissue, and most abundantly in cortex. It has been implicated in the inhibition of axon regeneration through a ternary complex formed with NgR1 (ligand-binding subunit) and p75 (signal transducing subunit). The inhibitory action is achieved through RhoA-GTP upregulation in response to the presence of MOG, MAG or Nogo-66 in the central nervous system. LINGO-1 also inhibits oligodendrocyte precursor differentiation and myelination, by a mechanism that also involves activation of RhoA, but which apparently does not require 75 or NgR1.Recombinant human LINGO1 protein, was expressed in E.coli
