Catalogue

Background
Novel adaptor protein which mediates the activation of sphingomyelinase by receptors such as tumor necrosis factor receptor type 1 and CD40 and subsequent apoptosis in cardiomyocytes. Inhibition of this factor may provide a novel intervention point for reducing ischemia/reperfusion injury.

Synonyms: nSMAF; Neutral sphingomyelinase (N-SMase) activation associated factor

Source

Immunogen: Synthetic peptide derived from human NSMAF protein.
