Product Overview
Description | Recombinant Human Ribonuclease K6 is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Trp24-Leu150 is expressed with a 6His tag at the C-terminus. |
Accession | Q93091 |
Synonym | Ribonuclease K6; RNase K6; RNASE6; RNS6 |
Gene Background | Ribonuclease K6 (RNASE6) is a secreted protein that belongs to the pancreatic ribonuclease family. Human RNASE6 is synthesized as a 150 amino acid precursor that contains a 23 amino acid signal sequence, and a 127 amino acid mature chain. RNASE6 is expressed in many tissues, with high expression levels in the lung, with lower expression levels in the heart, placenta, kidney, pancreas, liver, brain, and skeletal muscle. It is also detected in monocytes and neutrophils. RNASE6 may have a role in host defense. |

Target Details
Target Function | Ribonuclease which shows a preference for the pyrimidines uridine and cytosine. Has potent antibacterial activity against a range of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, including P.aeruginosa, A.baumanii, M.luteus, S.aureus, E.faecalis, E.faecium, S.saprophyticus and E.coli. Causes loss of bacterial membrane integrity, and also promotes agglutination of Gram-negative bacteria. Probably contributes to urinary tract sterility. Bactericidal activity is independent of RNase activity. |
Subcellular Location | Secreted. Lysosome. Cytoplasmic granule. |
Protein Families | Pancreatic ribonuclease family |
Database References | |
Tissue Specificity | Highly expressed in spleen (at protein level). Has little or no expression in healthy kidneys (at protein level). Detected in interstitial leukocytes in infected kidneys (at protein level). Expressed in ureter where it localizes to urothelial and submucos |
