Cerebral dopamine neurotrophic factor also known as ARMET-like protein 1 or is a protein that in humans that is encoded by the CDNF gene. CDNF protein is expressed in human brain, acts differently from known neurotrophic factors and can protect and repair dopamine neurons in two pre-clinical models of Parkinson’s disease (PD).

Source:
Escherichia coli
Endotoxin Test:
<0.1 EU per 1 μg of the protein by the LAL method.
Purity:
>98% as determined by SDS-PAGE. Ni-NTA chromatography
Formulation:
The protein was lyophilized from a solution containing 1X PBS, pH 8.0.
Reconstitution:
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized protein in sterile H2O to a concentration not less than 100 μg/mL and incubate the stock solution for at least 20 min to ensure sufficient re-dissolved.
Storage:
Lyophilized protein should be stored at -20°C. Upon reconstitution, protein aliquots should be stored at -20°C or -80°C.
Note:
Please use within one month after protein reconstitution.
