Antioxidative CXXC Peptide Motif From Mesencephalic Astrocyte-Derived Neurotrophic Factor Antagonizes Programmed Cell Death
Mesencephalic astrocyte-derived neurotrophic factor (MANF) is a potent survival-promoting protein with neurorestorative effect for neurodegenerative diseases. Its mechanism of action, albeit poorly known, depends strongly on the CXXC motif (CKGC). Here we studied the survival-promoting properties of...
