Human Renin Protein (His Tag)

FLJ10761,HNFJ2,REN

Catalog Number P10969-H08H
Organism Species Human
Host Human Cells
Synonyms FLJ10761,HNFJ2,REN
Molecular Weight The secreted recombinant human Renin is a monomeric protein after cleavage of the signal peptide. The pro form consists of 394 amino acids and predictes a molecular mass of 43.7 kDa. In SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions, it migrates with the apparent molecular mass of 50 kDa due to glycosylation.
predicted N Leu 24
SDS-PAGE
Purity > 95 % as determined by SDS-PAGE
Protein Construction A DNA sequence encoding the human Renin (NP_000528.1) precursor (Met 1-Arg 406) was expressed with a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus.
Bio-activity Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA.
Immobilized human RENIN-His (P 10969-H08H) at 10 μg/ml (100 μl/well) can bind biotinylated human AGT-His (P 10994-H08H) with a linear range of 0.156-5.0 μg/ml.

Formulation Lyophilized from sterile 25mM MES, 150mM NaCl, pH6.5
1. Normally 5 % - 8 % trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween80 are added as protectants before lyophilization. Specific concentrations are included in the hardcopy of COA.
Background Mouse Renin-1, also known as Ren-1, Angiotensinogenase and Kidney renin, is a member of the peptidase A1 family. Renin-1 is synthesized by the juxtaglomerular cells of the kidney in response to decreased blood pressure and sodium concentration. androgen and thyroid hormones influence levels of Renin-1 in mouse submandibular gland (SMG) primarily by regulating the amount of Renin-1 mRNA available for translation. Renin-1 is a highly specific endopeptidase, whose only known function is to generate angiotensin I from angiotensinogen in the plasma, initiating a cascade of reactions that produce an elevation of blood pressure and increased sodium retention by the kidney. It is expressed at relatively low levels in mouse SMG and kidney. Ren-2 is expressed at high levels in the mouse SMG and at very low levels, if at all, in the kidney. Ren-1 and Ren-2 are closely linked on mouse chromosome 1, show extensive homology in coding and noncoding regions and provide a model for studying the regulation of gene expression.
