- This Renin protein is labelled with His tag.
- Purpose
- Recombinant Mouse REN1/Renin-1 Protein (His Tag)(Active)
- Sequence
- Met 1-Arg 402
- Characteristics
- A DNA sequence encoding the pro form of mouse REN1 (NP_112469.1) (Met 1-Arg 402) was fused with a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus.
- Purity
- > 97 % as determined by SDS-PAGE
- Endotoxin Level
- < 1.0 EU per μg of the protein as determined by the LAL method.
- Biological Activity Comment
- 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/μg.2. Immobilized mouse REN1-His at 10ug/ml (100 μl/well) can bind biotinylated human AGT-His with a linear range of 31.25-250 ng/ml.

- Background
-
Background: 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.
