Synonym
Neuropilin-2, NRP2, VEGF165R2, Neuropilin2, Vascular endothelial cell growth factor 165 receptor 2
Source
Human Neuropilin-2, His Tag (NR2-H52H3) is expressed from human 293 cells (HEK293). It contains AA Arg 21 - Pro 864 (Accession # O60462-1).
Predicted N-terminus: Arg 21
Molecular Characterization

This protein carries a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus.
The protein has a calculated MW of 97.0 kDa. The protein migrates as 105-125 kDa when calibrated against Star Ribbon Pre-stained Protein Marker under reducing (R) condition (SDS-PAGE) due to glycosylation.
Endotoxin
Less than 1.0 EU per μg by the LAL method / rFC method.
Purity
>95% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
>95% as determined by SEC-MALS.
Formulation
Lyophilized from 0.22 μm filtered solution in PBS, pH7.4 with trehalose as protectant.

Background
Neuropilin-1 (Npn-1, previously known as neuropilin) and Neuropilin-2 (previously known as Npn-1-related molecule) are type I transmembrane proteins that bind distinct members of the class III secreted semaphorin subfamily that are implicated in repulsive axon guidance. Neuropilin extracellular domains contain two CUB (complement-binding) domains, two domains with homology to coagulation factors V and VIII, and a MAM (meprin) domain. In the absence of ligands, neuropilins can form homo- and hetero-oligomers via their MAM domains. Expression in developing neurons of the central and peripheral nervous systems is somewhat overlapping but distinct. Npn-1 and Npn-2 are also receptors for VEGF165 on endothelial and tumor cells.
