5LSD is the recombinant mouse Nerve Growth Factor (NGF), that does not bind to any ligand. Therefore it allows conclusions on the features of its binding loops. Through 5LSD, 3 questions can be targeted: (i) how is the NGF N-terminus structured in the absence of ligands? (ii) how flexible/rigid are the loops and how does their dynamics may reflect on the overall structural plasticity of mature NGF? (iii) how much do the loops contribute to antibody recognition? <ref>PMID: 28083536</ref> | 5LSD is the recombinant mouse Nerve Growth Factor (NGF), that does not bind to any ligand.

5LSD
5LSD is the recombinant mouse Nerve Growth Factor (NGF), that does not bind to any ligand. Therefore it allows conclusions on the features of its binding loops. Through 5LSD, 3 questions can be targeted: (i) how is the NGF N-terminus structured in the absence of ligands? (ii) how flexible/rigid are the loops and how does their dynamics may reflect on the overall structural plasticity of mature NGF? (iii) how much do the loops contribute to antibody recognition? [1]
The neurotrophin family
Disease and use in Biotechnologies
Relevance link title
As NGF is the prototype of the neurotrophin family, a better understanding of NGF could lead to a better understanding of the whole family. Knowledge of 5LSD could support this.
Differences and importance of unbounded feature
This is a sample scene created with SAT to by Group, and another to make of the protein. You can make your own scenes on SAT starting from scratch or loading and editing one of these sample scenes.
Structure
In the absence of Partners, the NGF N-terminus has a strong tendency to fold into a helix. This challenges the current view that this region is unstructured. [2]
