简介
Agrin, especially the neuron-specific (z+) isoform, plays a crucial role in neuromuscular junction (NMJ) formation and postsynaptic differentiation. It activates the AGRN-LRP4 receptor complex, leading to NMJ formation through phosphorylation of MUSK. Agrin Protein, Rat (HEK293, His) is the recombinant rat-derived Agrin protein, expressed by HEK293 , with N-6*His labeled tag and P1788-S1798 del.

Protein Description
Agrin is a vital extracellular matrix protein that plays a critical role in the formation and maintenance of neuromuscular junctions (NMJs). Initially identified for its function in synaptic differentiation, Agrin is produced primarily by motoneurons and is secreted into the synaptic cleft, where it binds to specific receptors on muscle cells, initiating signaling pathways that lead to the clustering of acetylcholine receptors (AChRs) at the NMJ. Given its essential function in neuromuscular signaling, disruptions in Agrin signaling have been implicated in various neuromuscular disorders, including congenital myasthenic syndromes and certain forms of muscular dystrophy. Recent research has focused on the recombinant production of Agrin, which allows for detailed studies of its structure-function relationships, the investigation of its signaling mechanisms, and the potential therapeutic applications in muscle regeneration and nerve repair. The development of recombinant Agrin also facilitates the study of its interactions with other molecules in the extracellular matrix and its role in synaptic plasticity, potentially leading to new insights into NMJ pathology and novel treatment strategies for neuromuscular diseases. Understanding Agrin's multifaceted roles at the NMJ not only advances our knowledge of muscle biology and nerve-muscle communication but also opens avenues for innovative therapeutic approaches that address debilitating neuromuscular conditions.
