Neuritin is a neurotrophic factor, which is expressed in response to induction of neuronal activity by NGF, BDNF, NT3, and other neural stimulators. It is expressed primarily in postmitotic-differentiating neurons of the developing nervous system and in neuronal structures related to synaptic plasticity in the adult nervous system. Neuritin acts as a molecular mediator of neurite outgrowth, neuronal survival, and synaptic maturation. Recombinant human Neuritin is a covalently disulfide-linked homodimer, consisting of two 9.7kD polypeptide monomers, each containing 88aa.
