Brain Expressed X-Linked 1

Brain Expressed X-Linked 1 (BEX1) which participates in cell cycle progression and neuronal differentiation, is a signaling adapter molecule involved in p75NTR/NGFR signaling. BEX1 inhibits neuronal differentiation in response to nerve growth factor. BEX1 links between the cell cycle and neurotrophic factor signaling by acting as an upstream modulator of receptor signaling, adjusting biological responses to external signals with internal cellular states.

BEX1 Human Recombinant produced in E. coli is a single polypeptide chain containing 148 amino acids (1-125) and having a molecular mass of 17.2kDa. BEX1 is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
