Description

conjugation-Unconjugated-source-Recombinant human NT-proBNP protein, N-His protein is expressed in E.coli with N-His. It contains the amino acid sequence of 27-102/134.-gene_id-4879-swiss_prot-P16860-applications-ELISA-species-Others-background-Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), also known as B-type natriuretic peptide, is a hormone secreted by cardiomyocytes in the heart ventricles in response to stretching caused by increased ventricular blood volume. The 32-amino acid polypeptide BNP is secreted attached to a 76鈥揳mino acid N-terminal fragment in the prohormone called NT-proBNP (BNPT), which is biologically inactive. Once released, BNP binds to and activates the atrial natriuretic factor receptor NPRA, and to a lesser extent NPRB, in a fashion similar to atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) but with 10-fold lower affinity. The biological half-life of BNP, however, is twice as long as that of ANP, and that of NT-proBNP is even longer, making these peptides better targets than ANP for diagnostic blood testing.-storage_buffer-0.01M TBS(pH7.4)-storage_condition-The product should be stored at -70°C or -20°C.-expression_system-E.coli-tag-N-His-purity-> 95% as determined by SDS- PAGE-endotoxin-Not Tested
