| Product Name | REN, 24-406aa, Human, Baculovirus |
|---|---|
| Description | REN, also known as renin, is a member of the peptidase A1 family. It is synthesized by the juxtaglomerular cells of the kidney in response to decreased blood pressure and sodium concentration. It 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. Recombinant human REN, fused to His-tag at C-terminus, was expressed in insect cell and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques |
| Synonyms | Renin, REN, HNFJ2, Angiotensin forming enzyme, Angiotensin forming enzyme precursor, Angiotensinogenase, Angiotensinogenase precursor, FLJ10761, HNFJ2, REN, Ren1, RENI_HUMAN, Renin, Renin precursor renal |
