The 778 aa human NRAGE protein contains a segment with 22 repeats of a W(P/Q)xPxx motif, followed by a MAGE domain. In the brain, NRAGE interacts with p75NTR, blocks cell cycle progression and facilitates NGF-dependent apoptosis. Over amino acids 73-254, human NRAGE shares 87% and 73% aa identity with mouse and rat NRAGE, respectively.
