DEFINITION |
Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (247 aa, ~28 kDa) is encoded by the human BDNF gene. This protein plays a role in both the development of the nervous system and neuronal survival. |
DesignNote |
The active form of brain-derived neurotrophic factor is produced by proteolytic cleaves that remove 128 N-terminal residues from the full length precursor protein. (UniProt) |
