Product Overview
Tag | His |
Host Species | Mouse |
Accession | NP_112469.1 |
Synonym | D19352, Ren, Ren-1, Ren-A, Ren1, Ren1c, Ren1d, Rn-1, Rnr |
Background | Renin-1, also known as Ren-1, Angiotensinogenase and Kidney renin, is a member of thepeptidase 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. |
Description | A DNA sequence encoding the pro form of mouse REN1 (NP_112469.1) (Met 1-Arg 402) was fused with a His tag at the C-terminus. |
Source | HEK293 |
Predicted N Terminal | Leu 22 |
AA Sequence | Met 1-Arg 402 |
Molecular Weight | The recombinant mouse REN1 consists of 392 a.a. and has a predicted molecular mass of 43.2 kDa. As a result of glycosylation, the apparent molecular mass of rmREN1 is approximately 48-55 kDa in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions. |
Purity | >97% as determined by SDS-PAGE |
Endotoxin | < 1.0 EU per μg of the protein as determined by the LAL method |
Bioactivity | 1. Measured by its ability to cleave the fluorogenic peptide substrate 5-FAM/QXL-™ 520 (Peti-Peterdi, J. et al., 2009, Physiology 24:88.). The specific activity is > 20 pmoles/min/ug.2. Immobilized mouse REN1-His at 10ug/ml (100 ul/well) can bind biotinylated human AGT-His with a linear range of 31.25-250 ng/ml. |
Formulation | Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4. |
Stability | The recombinant proteins are stable for up to 1 year from date of receipt at -70°C. |
Usage | For Research Use Only |
Storage | Store the protein under sterile conditions at -20°C to -80°C. It is recommended that the protein be aliquoted for optimal storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. |
