The gene fragment coding for amino acids 22-644 of the human Neuropilin-1 (NRP1) isoform 2 is expressed in mammalian cells with a human Fc tag at the C-terminus. The product is the recombinant human NRP1 protein. This NRP1 protein has been demonstrated to be active. In the functional ELISA, immobilized human VEGF165 can bind to this NRP1 protein. The EC50 is 22.68-34.55 ng/ml. It reaches up to 95% in purity. In the SDS-PAGE, this protein migrated to the band of molecular weight about 116 kDa on the gel. Its endotoxin is less than 1.0 EU/ug determined by the LAL method. This recombinant NRP1 protein is in stock.
NRP1, a member of a family of signaling and catalytic proteins, exists as two isoforms: a secreted form (sNRP1) and a transmembrane form. sNRP1 has been known to suppress cell-associated NRP-1 function in cervical cancer. And patients with cervical cancer have significantly higher circulating sNRP-1 levels. The transmembrane form of NRP1 plays important roles in the development of the nervous and cardiovascular system, tumorgenesis, and viral entry through interaction with VEGF, Sema3A, TGF-β, plexins, and integrins. Studies have demonstrated that NRP1 facilitates SARS-CoV-2 entry into host cells and significantly potentiates SARS-CoV-2 infectivity in vitro. NRP1 thus may potentially provide a therapeutic target for COVID-19.
