Preparation and Storage

Background: Meteorin

Meteorin is a 31 kDa, secreted protein that is expressed by undifferentiated neural and glial progenitors, and astrocytes. Its name derives from it ability to generate glial cells with long meteor-like tails. Mouse Meteorin is synthesized as a 291 amino acid (aa) precursor that contains a 270 aa mature region. It contains eight cysteines with no identifiable domains or N-linked glycosylation sites. There is one alternate splice form where the first 164 aa of the precursor are deleted and aa 165 is changed to a Met, possibly to serve in translation initiation. Mature mouse Meteorin is 82% and 77% aa identical to human and bovine Meteorin, respectively.
